During pregnancy, women need to undergo several ultrasound examinations. Usually, a color ultrasound examination should be performed between the 22nd and 28th week of pregnancy for the purpose of screening for abnormalities. Most deformities can be detected through ultrasound examination. So, what if I can't see it on the ultrasound at 23 weeks of pregnancy?
When women undergo ultrasound at 23 weeks of pregnancy, if the fetal position is poor, it is difficult to conduct a comprehensive examination of the baby. At this time, pregnant women can eat some sweets or walk more for a while, which can promote fetal movement and facilitate the smooth progress of the examination. If the fetal position has not changed after taking the above measures, we can only wait for the baby's position to be adjusted before going for the examination.
If pregnant women need to undergo ultrasound examination, they should wear their tops and pants separately. During the process of color ultrasound examination, doctors use instruments to examine the face, heart, brain, spine and other parts of the fetus, which can detect whether the fetus has defects. If abnormalities are found in the baby during the examination, the pregnancy should be terminated in a timely manner.
Pregnant women do not need to hold their urine or go on an empty stomach for color ultrasound. They only need to go to the hospital for examination at the designated time. Attention everyone, current ultrasound technology still has limitations. Although fetal malformations can be detected through ultrasound, not all fetal malformations can be detected.
