IS ULTRASOUND SAFE FOR BABIES MAMA BABY CAREThere’s no proof that ultrasound scans are harmful. Scans like ultrasound had been utilized in being pregnant for years now. It might not influence the baby it just sends sound waves through the womb, which we call the uterus, which bounces to the baby’s body. Ultrasound helps the sonographer to check the baby’s movement in the women’s body.
The sound waves tell how far your pregnancy is and what kind of scans we must use. All ultrasound machine has an index, which we call thermal index. Some of the scanners have a low thermal index, which produces low heat, and it also has different settings that the sonographer uses on different pregnancies.
IS SCANS PERFORMED SAFE AND SOUND?
All we need professionals to scan safely and doctors should be fully trained to perform them. Sonographers usually know all types of scans also, when and on whom to apply scans, and they perform it as fast as they can to avoid any type of risk.
A researcher stated that some scans which are medically required are nothing to concern about. But what is the main concern? The waves are quite harmful as the energy heats the baby’s tissue.
3D AND 4D SCANS:
3D AND 4D scans usually use for getting a baby’s detailed pictures and videos of moving in the womb. From this scan, the doctor can find out the situation clearly or in more detail. These scans should only be done when needed medically. Going for scans at random technician using unknown calibration can be harmful because it needs to be done on the lowest possible setting.
HOW MANY ULTRASOUND SCANS ARE SAFE?
One of the medical firms stated all pregnant ladies should have ultra-scans just to know the conditions and movement of the baby. But there’s a time to do that, when you have reached 19 to 23 weeks of pregnancy, it’s the best time to go for ultrasounds.
During these weeks the sonographer checks the position of the vessels in the cord named (Umbilical cord) also, computing the organs of your baby, and evaluate the development of the baby’s heart, spine, brain, and other main organs. Sometimes the doctor or a sonographer uses the ultra-scans earlier between 11 to 15 weeks to check on the things and establish the due date of the delivery.
REASONS TO HAVE ULTRA-SCANS:
- To check if you are pregnant.
- To make sure about the growth, development, and check the due date.
- Check how many babies are going to have.
- To observe your ovaries where the eggs are stored and uterus.
- Check out the pregnancy difficulties and complications.
- Screen for birth-defects, which change the health conditions.
AFTER ULTRASOUND:
After ultrasound women get to know the condition of their baby, if they’re growing normal or not, if they need extra special care, or do they need more check-ups, or if the condition is not good they need to treat the baby inside the womb, or they have to go for C-section a surgical procedure in which a baby is born through cut a surgeon makes in your stomach, etc.
