I don't know if this is the right spot for this, so please move if necessary.

I've been researching on the internet and found a number of sources suggesting there's a link between increased use in ultrasound & cord clamping and the increase in autism/ASD.

I'm not sure I'd feel confident going through a pg without any scans, given my age and a previous mc, even though I know women have gone through centuries without them. I know research shows that statistically there's no increase in baby health from using ultrasound, but the more I've read about possible complications, the less I feel we could go without. How else can you find out about placenta praevia, vasa praevia etc?

The link between cord clamping and oxygen deprevation in bub seems clear, so hopefully that won't be too big a fight, but I'm really not sure about the no ultrsound thing. I'm happy to keep them to a minimum, but then how many is too many and does it depend on how strong the machine is?

Has anyone found similar research/ had any experience with this?

TIA
