The second trimester of your pregnancy is crucial as you are slowly getting closer to your delivery date. There are some important tests that need to be conducted at this stage to take a look at the condition of the growing fetus and assess its health.
The major medical tests that you need to be conducted at this stage are as follows:
Ultrasound:
The ultrasound helps in seeing the number of babies in the womb as well as the position of the placenta. With the help of an ultrasound you can see the anatomy of the baby and check out for any abnormalities. The ultrasound can be done either through the vagina or over the abdomen. This, however, depends on the requirement.
