To find out more about what it's like to do ultrasound, we interviewed one of our nurse techs, Shelley Nelson, R.N.
-How early is it possible to do an
ultrasound?
It is possible to do an ultrasound as
early as five weeks.
-What information can a woman find out
from an ultrasound?
A woman can find out how many weeks she
is in her pregnancy and how fast the baby's heart is beating.
-How reliable is ultrasound?
Ultrasound technology gives very
reliable information in determining how many weeks pregnant a woman
is.
-What does an unborn baby look like at
10-12 weeks?
An unborn baby at 10 weeks is
completely formed and just needs time to grow. On ultrasound
you will see the heart beating, the head, body, arms and legs are
clearly defined. The baby will often move around a lot as well.
-What do you like most about your job?
The thing I like most about my job is
meeting new women and talking with them about their pregnancies.
I also like taking lots of ultrasound pictures!
