Illustration of B-ultrasound in three months of pregnancy to understand the development of the baby
B-ultrasound in three months of pregnancy is usually called \”NT transparency test\” and is an important part of prenatal medical examination for pregnant women. At this stage, the fetal organs gradually develop and mature, and structural and functional abnormalities of some key organs can be detected and dealt with promptly through B-ultrasound examination. The following is a detailed explanation of the baby\’s development from four aspects.
Baby’s head and brain development
When a pregnant woman is three months pregnant, the fetus\’ head has gradually taken up half of the fetal volume. The size and shape of the head can affect the child\’s intellectual development. B-ultrasound can measure the outline and size of the skull to ensure normal brain development of the baby. At the same time, B-ultrasound can also determine whether the baby has spina bifida, hydrocephalus and other brain malformations by measuring the condition of the baby\’s skull and cranial sutures.
The development of baby’s limbs
When a pregnant woman is three months pregnant, the face and limbs of the fetus have already formed. B-ultrasound can clearly observe the development of the hands, feet, neck and limbs of the fetus. At this time, the fetal bones have also begun to form, and B-ultrasound can determine whether the bones are normal, because abnormal bones in the baby may lead to limb deformities, such as valgus hands and varus feet. In addition, if it is found that the baby\’s limbs cannot be displayed on the B-ultrasound, it is recommended to check again to avoid problems such as transcendence and congenital limb loss.
Baby’s heart development
When pregnant women are three months pregnant, the heart development of the fetus is very important. B-ultrasound examination can accurately measure the heart size, heart function and heart blood flow speed, and can also observe the heart structure. Through B-ultrasound, we can determine whether the fetal heart position is normal and whether there are hole defects, ventricular septal defects and other diseases. If abnormalities occur during the examination, it is recommended to consult a professional doctor in time to use professional diagnosis to determine whether surgical treatment is needed.
The development of other organs of the baby
In addition to the head, limbs and heart, B-ultrasound can also observe the development of other organs such as the liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys. The liver is a central organ during the embryonic stage, and its development is closely related to body metabolism. B-ultrasound can measure the size, shape and position of the fetal liver and determine whether there are diseases such as liver cysts. In addition, B-ultrasound can clearly check whether the patient has hydronephrosis, bladder imaging, and the position of the gallbladder, and then diagnose whether the patient has congenital hydronephrosis, bladder orifice deformity, and other diseases.
Summary
B-ultrasound examination in three months of pregnancy is very important, as it can promptly determine the development of the baby\’s various organs and whether there are deformities, abnormalities, etc. During the examination, pregnant women should enter the B-ultrasound examination room according to the doctor\’s requirements and stay quiet and relaxed. Relevant professionals from the hospital in Shanghai will provide you with examination and judgment. You can also listen to your doctor\’s advice on how to improve your diet, living habits, etc. to optimize the health of you and your baby.
