It takes ten months of pregnancy to give birth to a baby, and although this process is arduous and long, it is also filled with joy. I believe that every pregnant woman spends their pregnancy in anticipation, and every prenatal check-up hopes to learn more about the baby. So let's learn about what to see with the first prenatal ultrasound examination?
The first transfer to obstetrics examination after pregnancy is around 12 weeks of gestation, at which time color ultrasound needs to measure the NT value. This is a very important examination, mainly measuring the thickness of the transparent band on the baby's back neck. If the thickness of the transparent band of the baby exceeds 3mm, it indicates that there may be problems with the baby's development. At this time, pregnant women should not be careless and need to closely monitor the baby's development dynamics.
In addition to measuring the NT value, this ultrasound examination also needs to check whether there are any problems with the development of other organs in the fetus. After the ultrasound examination, there are many other examination items that pregnant women need to complete. For example, blood and urine routine, liver and kidney function, thyroid function, blood pressure measurement, weight measurement, and so on, all need to be completed one by one.
After the initial prenatal examination, the doctor will schedule the next examination time for the pregnant woman. The pregnant woman should arrange the next examination time in advance to avoid missing the examination opportunity. But if a pregnant woman experiences discomfort before the next prenatal check-up, she needs to go to the hospital for examination at any time and should not delay.
