The more I know about all the changes that the body goes through during pregnancy, as well as the development of the baby in the womb, the more I am struck by how amazing the human body is. And now we share another fact that perhaps is not as well known or talked about.
The new generation of high resolution ultrasound machines improves the diagnostic capacity and detection of fetal malformations. This is the case of 5D ultrasound that allows the baby to be seen in the uterus in five dimensions, achieving a much more defined and realistic reconstruction of the fetus than 4D or 3D.
2D (two-dimensional) ultrasound is the most widespread, but in recent years we have also known 3D (three-dimensional) ultrasound, which allows us to see the volume aspect of the baby, and the so-called 4D ultrasound that adds the complement of seeing the baby moving in real time.
In the second trimester of pregnancy, between weeks 18 and 22, all pregnant women undergo a routine ultrasound called the 20 week ultrasound or "the 20 o'clock echo" (in waiting rooms and cafeterias), although their A more accurate name would be to call it a 20-week morphological ultrasound, since it performs a detailed examination of the entire morphology of the baby.
One of the greatest curiosities of parents in pregnancy is to know if the baby will be a boy or a girl. Predictions about the sex of the baby before it is born are common until it is confirmed by a medical test or an ultrasound, although sometimes they can also fail.
One of the questions that pregnant women ask themselves as the time of delivery approaches is whether their baby will be well positioned at birth. In fact, its position is checked in each ultrasound to see if everything is going well, a very important issue at the end of pregnancy, because the position of the baby is decisive in the development of labor.
