My physician gave me an ultrasound during week 10. I felt that it might be helpful to at least have another later in the pregnancy to see if any complications such as polyhydraminos or deformity has occured. With my 1st born, I had at least 4 ultrasounds, as my physician liked to monitor the total progress including growth. Is it normal or even safe to measure an entire pregnancy based on an 10-week ultrasound?

can the baby's heart beat be detected by an ultrasound at 8 weeks.
