Nowadays, many couples plan to have a second child. Compared to their first child, many pregnant women do not pay much attention to prenatal checkups because they have had one childbirth experience. But without examination, abnormalities in the fetus and pregnant woman cannot be detected, which can easily lead to danger. So, when is the B-ultrasound examination for the second child?
After successfully conceiving a second child, it is important to undergo a timely ultrasound examination. If there are no special circumstances, it is necessary to undergo an ultrasound examination around 8 weeks of pregnancy to confirm the diagnosis of intrauterine pregnancy and check the development of the fetal bud and heart. Especially for women who have had their first child by caesarean section, it is even more important to have an ultrasound as soon as possible after becoming pregnant with their second child, because sometimes the fetus may implant in the scar area, and if this happens, the fetus cannot be preserved.
Women who are pregnant with their second child can use ultrasound examination to check the development of the placenta and the health status of the pregnant woman herself. Pregnant women should pay attention to holding their urine in advance before undergoing ultrasound examination, as this examination should be performed when the bladder is full.
Women who have had a cesarean section should undergo a check-up before pregnancy when preparing to have a second child. Ultrasound examination during pregnancy can observe the healing of uterine scars, which can provide timely information on a woman's uterine condition. Doctors will determine whether a woman is suitable for another pregnancy based on the examination results.
