Is this something I can request or is this only done if >a problem is detected?? 18 weeks seems sooo long to wait~ most doctors only do one because most insurances only cover one and most people want to see the sex so they wait that long. if thre is a problem they will do one earlier i got one earlier this time because of previous m/c but i'm sure if you want to pay for it they will give you one
