Based on what I've read, it sometimes is best to have a skilled

technician read the ultrasound since that is their specialty & some

dr's aren't as skilled as the tech. I would think that the more

monitoring the better. During my last pregnancy I had ultrasounds at

the peri's near the hospital every 2 wks as well as monthly visits

with my OB. Has your OB mentioned bedrest? Just curious because mine

says she would order strict bedrest right away next time I get pg.

It must be a little scary but sooo exciting for you too right now. I

wish you all the best of luck and an uneventful, happy pregnancy!
