I'm a bit confused and hoping you can help. My wife is 16 weeks pregnant now and her first trimester scan at 8 weeks showed a normal single live intrauterine pregnancy. She's currently staying at her mom's and we're trying to figure out by when she should have the second trimester anomaly scan. We want to plan her return and schedule it properly. Also, with all the talk about the outdated MTP Act in our country, we just want to be on the safer side in case any serious complications arise. Could you advise on this?
The Anomaly scan (second trimester scan) is typically performed between 18-22 weeks of gestation, so your wife should plan to return and schedule the scan around 18-20 weeks, i.e., within the next 2-4 weeks.
