If you are pregnant most OBs will do a "beginning" ultrasound around 8-10 weeks to confirm pregnancy and to date the pregnancy. Then around 18-20 weeks they do the "Big" Ultrasound and they look at the features, the Heartrate, and other things to determine the health of the fetus. This is also the ultrasound where you can possibly find out the babies sex should you want to...
