Is Doppler Scan Advisable During 30th Week Of Pregnancy?

default
Posted on Fri, 22 Jan 2016
Question: My Wife is Pregnant for about 28-30 weeks. Please let me know when can a Doppler scan be taken (during which weeks). I heard that a Doppler scan can be taken between 28-32 weeks.

We have some personal commitment and want to postpone this scan for a week or two. Please advise.

Brief Answer:
You may postpone it...

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I assume you are referring to fetal Doppler scan. This Doppler scan isn't always a must during pregnancy unless her obstetrician orders it for clarifications. In this context you can get it done after 2 weeks when your personal commitments are fulfilled.

Hope this answered your question.

Regards
