Answer
There isn't a universally standard set of three scans. The number and type of ultrasounds recommended during pregnancy depend on several factors, including the mother’s health, the course of the pregnancy, and the presence of any risk factors. Common ultrasounds include an early scan (usually around 8 weeks of gestation) to confirm the pregnancy, an anomaly scan (usually around 18-22 weeks) to check for any structural abnormalities, and a growth scan (usually performed later in pregnancy) to monitor the baby's growth and development. Your healthcare provider will work with you to determine the appropriate number and timing of ultrasounds, based on your specific needs. Discuss your concerns with your healthcare provider to ensure you are receiving the appropriate and most effective prenatal care.
