First-trimester pregnancy at 13 weeks, can I have a color ultrasound?

Patient's question:

First pregnancy at 13 weeks 6 days. My belly has already started showing, but recently I feel like it's become a bit smaller. What could be the reason? At 12 weeks 3 days, my first prenatal check-up was normal, and so far I haven't experienced any discomfort. I'm worried about the baby and want to get another ultrasound, but I'm afraid it might be harmful to do too many. What should I do?

Doctor's answer:

According to your situation, you are 13 weeks and 6 days pregnant. I feel your stomach has become smaller. If you have no discomfort at all, it's probably just your worries. Besides, you just had your prenatal check-up at 13 weeks and 3 days, and everything was normal. It's only been three days since then, so your stomach definitely won't have grown much. If you're still not at ease, you can have another ultrasound. It will have no impact on the baby, so don't worry. The above advice is for the question "First pregnancy at 13 weeks and 6 days, stomach already showing before." I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
