FAQ
An obstetrics ultrasound is a safe, non-invasive imaging test that uses sound waves to create real-time images of your developing baby in the womb. It helps monitor fetal development, check for any abnormalities, confirm your due date, and assess the health of your uterus and placenta. Regular ultrasounds play a key role in ensuring a healthy pregnancy.
The first obstetric ultrasound is usually scheduled between 6 to 8 weeks of pregnancy to confirm the pregnancy, detect a heartbeat, and estimate your due date. Your healthcare provider may recommend additional ultrasounds at different stages to monitor growth and development.
For early pregnancy ultrasounds, a full bladder can help improve image quality, so you may be asked to drink water beforehand. Wear comfortable clothing that allows easy access to your abdomen. Follow any specific instructions provided by your care team before the appointment.
Yes, ultrasounds are considered very safe for both mother and baby. They use sound waves—not radiation—to create images, and have been used for decades in prenatal care without known risks when performed by trained professionals.
During the ultrasound, a technician will apply a special gel to your abdomen and use a handheld device called a transducer to capture images. The process is painless and typically lasts 20–30 minutes. You may even get to see your baby move, yawn, or wave, depending on their development stage.
