look for white spots on the image to see solid tissues, like bones, and dark spots on the image to see fluid-filled tissues, like the amniotic fluid in the uterus
.

A baby boy or girl can have a heart rate of 160bpm
, a normal fetal heart rate is anywhere from 120bpm to 160bpm. Your results can vary with every use of an at-home doppler or scan. It depends on the age of the fetus and its activity level whilst the heart rate is being taken.

, and it’s less accurate before 15-16 weeks, but mistakes have been known to have been made. NIPT, CVS, amniocentesis are very reliable methods to determine the baby’s sex. There are other methods, most of which are less reliable.
What’s the chances of having a boy?

What does Hz mean on baby scan?

Frequencies used for pregnancy ultrasounds can range from 1.6 to 10 MHz, but are more commonly between 3 and 7.5 MHz
. Generally the lower the frequency, the further (or deeper) the sound waves can penetrate the body’s tissues.
What does P on ultrasound mean?
P =
Parity
means # of deliveries > 20 weeks , Ptpal (T=term,preterm,abortion, live child)
Can you see baby’s eyes on ultrasound?
