Can someone please tell me why the medical profession is still recommending routine ultrasound when it seems that most of the studies say that it has found to have no or little effects on foetal outcome, and has not been fully verified as safe by an adequate amount of well designed medical studies?? Even the Cochrane has advised caution and that further research is needed on safety..
WHY WHY WHY???
If anyone has any more recent info from systematic reviews of randomized controlled trials, I would love to hear about it. Thanks!
Got 20 week scan tomorrow and my instinct tells me not to do it! But my husband... wants the pictures!! - great reason I say! (not). Im still annoyed about the 10 week one I got bullied into!!! - by the ob that is, not my hubby.
