Ultrasound Scan at 10 Weeks of Pregnancy
If you are reading this, we take it that you are 10 weeks pregnant. Congratulations! Now that you are 10 weeks pregnant, you can stop worrying when you'll start looking pregnant because you have reached that phase where your pregnancy bump will start showing. Your doctor may suggest an ultrasound scan around this time to make sure that your baby is healthy and is developing normally. An ultrasound, also called a sonogram, will help create a picture of your baby on a monitor with the help of sound waves. Read on to know why you need an ultrasound scan at 10 weeks of your pregnancy and how it is performed.
Why Should You Have an Ultrasound at 10 Weeks?
Following are the reasons for performing an ultrasound scan at 10 weeks of pregnancy.
1. To check the baby's growth.
Your doctor may suggest an ultrasound scan at 10 weeks of your pregnancy to check the progress or growth of your baby. By conducting a scan, she will be able to identify whether or not your baby is developing normally. At 10 weeks of pregnancy, the foetus weighs about 4gm and measures around 3.1cm from crown to rump. An ultrasound will make it clear how your baby is developing. She will also calculate the baby’s gestational age based on these measurements and predict a due date.
2. To check for any abnormalities.
Between 10 and 14 weeks of your pregnancy, nuchal translucency scan (NTS) will be performed to test the foetus for the risk of Down syndrome and other chromosomal abnormalities. In this, the unborn baby’s nuchal fold, which is the transparent back of the neck, will be measured to test for any abnormalities. This test is usually conducted in the 12th week of pregnancy.
3. To hear the baby's heartbeat.
You must have heard your baby’s heartbeat through an ultrasound scan at around 8 weeks of your pregnancy itself. But you can hear it during the 10th week as well. Your doctor will perform this test to ensure that your baby's heart functions normally.
4. To ensure that the baby's organs are functioning normally.
In the 10th week of pregnancy, the skin of the foetus is translucent. This means that all the internal organs will be visible on the ultrasound scan. Thus your doctor will be able to gauge whether all the organs are developing normally and functioning properly or not.
5. To see how the spine is developing.
The spine should be visible by the 10th week of pregnancy. The doctor will conduct an ultrasound to check if the spine is developing normally.
6. To determine the position of the baby.
If this is your first ultrasound, then the doctor will tell you about the location of the pregnancy, i.e., the position of your baby. An ultrasound will help rule out an ectopic pregnancy.
How to Prepare for Your 10th Week Pregnancy Scan
To prepare for your 10-week ultrasound scan, you will need to have a full bladder. Going for the scan with a full bladder will help the ultrasound technician to get a clear image of the baby, the placenta, uterus, ovaries, and cervix. You will need to drink 3 glasses of water an hour before you have the ultrasound so that your bladder is full.
How Long Does It Take to Perform an Ultrasound Scan?
A typical ultrasound scan can take between 15 to 30 minutes to perform. The sonographer has to get a good image of the baby and also examine your uterus, placenta, and ovaries. If the baby is very active and moves around or is in an awkward position, the sonographer might take longer to capture clear images. And if clear images are not obtained, the scan may have to be rescheduled for some other time.
How Is an Ultrasound Scan Performed?
In order to perform an ultrasound, the sonographer will ask you to lie down on the examination table and expose your belly and abdomen. She will then apply some gel over your belly and press a wand called a transducer on the skin. This wand will send ultrasound waves that will form an image of your baby on the monitor. The technician will apply some pressure on your belly with the wand to get a clear view of the baby. The scan is not painful and is non-invasive. In some cases, the scan may be done vaginally if the abdominal scan fails to produce clear images. But you don't have to worry - the vaginal probe is also not painful.
What Will You See on the Scan at the Tenth Week of Your Pregnancy?
Here is what you can expect to see in your 10-week ultrasound scan.
You might see your baby moving at the 10-week ultrasound. You can also expect to see your baby's hands, feet, and head clearly.
As your little one's skin will be transparent, you may also see the internal organs.
On the monitor, you will also see your baby's heart beating and you will be able to hear it too.
You might see your baby's forehead bulged. It is usually bulged to accommodate the growing brain. However, the forehead will flatten gradually.
You might also see your baby’s fingers and toes. You can also expect to see his nose and ears. You will see your baby's eyelids but they will be closed.
Baby’s skeleton is complete, and the framework of the spine can be seen.
No Movement at the 10th-week Ultrasound - Is this Normal?
If you do not see your baby moving at the 10th-week of your ultrasound, don't worry. Chances are your little one might be sleeping in the womb. As long as your sonographer assures you that the baby’s growth, development, and heartbeat are normal, you need not worry.
What If Some Abnormalities Are Discovered in the Scan?
If any abnormalities are spotted in the 10-week ultrasound pictures, your sonographer or doctor will inform you about it. In such cases, the doctor may recommend further testing such as Chorionic Villi Sampling, blood tests, and amniocentesis to be certain. Based on the findings, the doctor will speak to you about the further course of action to be taken and may even refer you to a specialist.
The 10-week ultrasound scan is also called a dating scan, as it is used to determine the gestational age of the baby and predict the due date. The nuchal translucency test is part of this scan. Some parents may choose to get a printed picture of the scan to preserve as a memento. In some countries, the technician may be able to determine the gender of the baby. However, sex determination is illegal in India. The 10-week ultrasound is done to ensure that the foetal development is normal and the baby is healthy. So don't miss this ultrasound if your doctor has suggested it. Go for regular tests and have a healthy pregnancy!

Raising Kids in a Joint Family
While raising a child may be the most rewarding experience one can possibly have, in the absence of a strong support system, it can also become a traumatic and unhappy one. A good day care can provide valuable support to young parents, but the personalized attention that a joint family can give to a child is irreplaceable. Keeping this in mind, let's see if raising kids in a joint family is easier or better.
"Every aspect of parenting, from looking after a child’s physical and material needs to keeping track of developmental milestones to nurturing him emotionally and helping him grow intellectually, is crucial and consumes time and energy. Intelligent parenting would imply creating a sturdy support system where tasks of parenting could be split or shared amongst family members. In nuclear families, especially ones with working mothers, reliable day care or nannies becomes imperative.
In joint families, grandparents or other members of extended family take turns in nurturing and raising the child.
An objective look at both systems would bring to the fore their deficiencies and strengths. The manner in which various facets of parenting are viewed and handled by both family types could spell the difference between successful, high EQ parenting and a job that is badly botched up.
The Problem Areas Generally are
Feeding
Most day care centers take utmost care of a child’s dietary needs. However, a working mother who stays in a joint family can be assured that her child will be fed home-cooked food at his meal times.
But of late, feeding a child has become a major bone of contention between parents and grandparents. Family members can disagree strongly on feeding schedules, choices of foods and meal size leading to significant stress. It’s been observed that in the absence of his parents when a child cries, grandparents (who still believe in the myth that fat is healthy or a child should not cry at any cost) can’t restrain themselves from offering sweets or junk foods or overfeeding the child. Generally, the mother’s or young parents’ views may be sidelined in favor of the more dominating family members. ||
Child-Centricity
It is rare to see a crying baby being neglected in the joint family. While nuclear families may rely heavily on gadgets and television to keep kids “busy” and out of harm’s way, senior family members generally prefer taking children out for strolls or holding them and playing with them. Touch, play, chatter and mobility are usually encouraged in joint families as there is enough adult supervision to allow the mother or other members to go about their daily chores. However, this may vary depending on the degree of awareness and child-friendliness of parents and extended family.
Teaching and Learning
Though reinforcement of school lessons is the primary responsibility of the parents, when the other family members chip in, it becomes easier for the parents. Senior family members also help in inculcating good family values such as sharing, caring, etc. in a child. It helps a child to learn various skills or crafts from different family members. However, teaching methods have evolved drastically in the recent years. Older family members may be unaware of the new syllabus and teaching styles which can create confusion for the child. Sometimes they try to impose their methods on the child causing him much grief.
Comments and Criticism
In a culture of strong hierarchies, where criticism and advice are generously doled out to young parents, a certain amount of resentment is inevitable. Not all parents take kindly to criticism. Mothers, naturally, draw most of the flak if the child is not doing well or appears thin or cries a lot. Children with feeding disorders can cause much anxiety, and constant pressure and criticism from in-laws can compound the mother’s apprehensions. In the absence of constructive advice, it would make sense for parents to separate, take full responsibility of the child and preserve their peace.
Decision-Making
Once again, while the right to decide what is best for the child should be the prerogative of the parents, in joint families it is often the grandparents who may impose their views. Decisions taken may involve the nitty-gritty of daily child rearing (disposable diapers or home-made nappies) to larger issues such as education (choice of school or board). For the young parent, especially the mother, asserting her decision-making powers may become a highly stressful exercise, where she would need the full support of her spouse.
In the final analysis, most working couples would prefer to leave their child behind with family members rather than at a sanitised and expensive day care. The joint family could give much relief and rest to tired young parents, especially, working mothers.
Children would be the happier for it, since they do enjoy homes abuzz with activity and relaxed parents. Joint families should normally mean less work for parents, but excessive criticism, unilateral top-down decision-making and lack of consensus with regard to feeding and daily child-rearing tasks could trigger off conflict and tension, which could adversely affect the child.
The emotional load would increase, nullifying the material benefits of raising the child in a joint family. What is important is not just a large support system, but one that is intelligent and well-informed. Read more

Acupuncture for Infertility: Does It Really Work?
Infertility prevails as a common problem among couples these days who are trying to conceive. The term infertility refers to the inability of a couple to conceive even after regular unprotected intercourse. This can be due to some medical problem with the man or the woman or in some cases both of them. The reasons for infertility are diverse and range from lifestyle to reproductive disorders. Most of these infertility problems are treatable, and there are numerous options available for these couples. These include simple home remedies, drugs, surgery, in-vitro fertilization techniques (IVF) or even surrogacy. Using acupuncture is a new phenomenon which is gaining hype for its alleged power to treat infertility. Let’s understand if this is really true and what the side effects and health risks are.
What is Acupuncture?
Acupuncture is considered a form of medicine in which certain points on the body are stimulated by inserting very fine needles in the skin. It is believed to have originated from Chinese medicinal practices and been around for over 3000 years. Acupuncture has proved helpful in managing pain in conditions like back pain, neck pain, headaches, knee problems and more. There are over 2000 acupuncture points in the human body which when applied pressure on, maintain the normal flow of energy throughout the body. How beneficial it is for other health conditions it is still unknown. It is a safe practice and involves very few risks when administered by a licensed practitioner. Acupuncture and infertility is a growing concept among young couples with even doctors recommending it as a procedure.
How Does It Help with Fertility?
Nowadays, there are numerous options available for infertile couples but not everyone can afford all these expensive techniques. They all tend to look for affordable solutions and home remedies. Acupuncture methods are one such resort for them. There are various ways in which the practice of acupuncture can address the causes of infertility. Acupuncture to boost fertility works in many ways such as helping to stimulate the endocrine hormones, decrease stress, and increase blood flow to the uterus for a thick lining formation. Acupuncture points for infertility locations range from the face to the lower abdomen.
The treatment required varies from one person it another. It is a personalised healthcare service which may not be same for any two people. However, it cannot help with problems like tubal adhesion or reproductive organ cancers. Acupuncture for pregnancy is a growing culture in the society these days since it is a solution that is minimally invasive.
Who Can Benefit?
Couples who are undergoing the following problems can benefit from acupuncture:
Endocrine Rectification: The quantity of hormone released is an important parameter for fertility and affects egg and sperm production. Acupuncture combined with herbal therapy can help overcome such hormonal imbalances. Hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, elevated follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), etc., are some problems which can be solved with acupuncture. Women suffering from Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) are also given acupuncture therapy.
Stress Buster: One of the most well-known problems that acupuncture combats is stress. Lifestyle stress is a common reason for low sperm count or even irregularity with the hormone cycles.
Cost Effective: Couples who cannot afford the high-end IVF and other surgeries to improve fertility can benefit from acupuncture sessions.
When to Start Acupuncture Treatment?
Acupuncture is usually given to the patient for a few months (three to four) before progressing into insemination or any other impregnation technique. The therapy is provided depending on the acupuncturist and doctor's suggestion.
When to Stop Acupuncture Treatment?
The treatment is often carried on even after conceiving. Usually, this is done to avoid any other complications or miscarriages. Since most of the miscarriages occur within the first trimester, the women are kept under treatment till the first three months of pregnancy. This also benefits the mother by keeping her stress free and improving her blood flow.
How Does Acupuncture Fertility Treatment Work?
Acupuncture helps in improving the blood flow to the reproductive organs and helps the uterus form thicker linings. Acupuncture also helps to moderate the neuro-hormonal pathways to enhance energy flow to the reproductive systems in the body.
Are the Acupuncture Points Different After an IVF and Insemination Than Before?
When the patient is expecting to get pregnant after an insemination or IVF procedure, there are a few acupuncture points that your acupuncturist should avoid. These points are contraindicated and are around the stomach, gallbladder, large intestine and bladder. Hence, it is necessary to keep the acupuncture practitioner updated about your infertility treatment and what stage you are in.
Is It Recognised by the Medical Community?
Doctors understand that stress is an underlying cause of illness which can be cured by acupuncture. The importance of acupuncture is so well recognized that many certified doctors have trained themselves in Oriental medicine to master acupuncture.
Are There Any Risks of Using Acupuncture for Infertility?
As acupuncture is a minimally invasive procedure, the risks are limited. However, incorrect application of the needles could result in a miscarriage in some cases. This is why you must have a trained doctor experienced in Oriental medicine to administer the sessions.
Acupuncture has been practised through the ages. Studies have shown that an increased libido and fertility are just some of the many benefits of acupuncture. Many couples have used this form of therapy to help them bear a child with remarkable success.

Alert: Many Indian Women Are Getting Unnecessary C-Sections! Check These Reasons Now
It is common knowledge now that an increasing number of Indian women are having C-section deliveries each year. But just how much is this increase, in actual numbers, and what is the problem? A popular news network recently shared the statistics: in recent years, there has been a 70% increase in C-section deliveries in the private sector! It is certainly true that there are situations when a C-section is the only available option for a safe delivery. However, there is a strong reason to believe that many of the C-sections being undertaken in India are actually unnecessary!
In the year 2010, the total percentage of C-section deliveries in India stood at 8.5 %. But this rate has gone up abysmally over recent years. A report published by ICMR School of Public Health gives us clear numbers: Kerala stands at 41%, Tamil Nadu at 58%. Even rural areas are reflecting a similar trend: in just 6 years, the percentage of C-section deliveries has gone from 31% to 51% in rural Haryana!
Now, while C-section by itself is a fairly safe medical procedure, it can pose far greater long-term risks for the mom and the baby as opposed to a normal delivery. It has been seen that babies born via C-section sometimes develop breathing problems, especially if the mother did not labour. This is because the baby's lungs didn't get a chance to get fully developed. Some studies have also warned that C-section babies could be more prone to problems such as Asthma, Type 1 Diabetes and Obesity. For the mother too, recovery from a C-section is a much longer procedure. It also predisposes her to the likelihood of having a C-section again, for her next delivery.
A recent tweet by Maneka Gandhi caused quite an uproar and brought the issue into focus once again. Quoting part of her tweet-series, here's what she had to say –
I’d like to share my concern over alarming percentage of C-Section surgeries being conducted in hospitals these days. /1
— Maneka Gandhi (@Manekagandhibjp) February 22, 2017
I have suggested mandating the hospitals to publicly display the no. of C-Sections vis-a-vis normal deliveries./7
— Maneka Gandhi (@Manekagandhibjp) February 22, 2017
Why Is This Alarming?
The World Health Organization (WHO) has set the recommended level of C-section births for a country to be between 10 and 15%. WHO has arrived at this figure taking into account different factors that affect the decision of going for a C-section delivery – which means, if the percentage of C-sections is lower than the set standard, that is a bad thing too (as it indicates that C-sections are not being done even when necessary).
To bring everything back in perspective, India stood at 8.5% not long back - close to the WHO range of 10-15%. However, this number has skyrocketed over the past decade and this is a big problem.
Who Is To Blame?
Let's take a look at different people involved in childbirth and understand each perspective.
1. Doctors and Hospitals
Did you know that roughly 70,000 babies are born every single day in our country? That's close to 50 babies per minute! This puts an insane amount of pressure on hospitals and doctors, in terms of availability of facilities to ensure safe childbirth for each pregnant mom.
C-sections take less time (approximately 10-15 minutes from time of incision to delivery, total 30-45 minutes in all) and are low-stress as compared to normal/vaginal deliveries (which can even last 10 or 12 hours, with constant monitoring of different parameters by the doctor and his/her team). Hence, C-sections should actually cost lesser than (or at least as much as) vaginal deliveries, but definitely not more. However, that is not the case.
The monetary trade-off for vaginal deliveries is far more disproportionate to the amount of time and effort required to be put in. Also, considering the time required for the delivery, more C-section deliveries means a hospital can offer services to a more number of women – an important factor considering the above statistic of number of childbirths per minute.
The prognosis of C-section is lengthier and more complicated than that of vaginal deliveries: this translates as more business for the hospital. Mothers have to stay under observation for longer periods, and have to often be medicated for better prognosis.
2. Family Members
When a pregnant mother is “on the table”, she has little-to-no control over her body. Even if she wishes to make the choice herself, she may not be in a position to do so. And that is where the woman's family comes into picture.
Family members often seem to be in a greater state of panic than the mother herself. A lot of husbands who 'want to be involved' in the process tend to become over-protective and act on impulse rather than logic. Same applies to family members. It is not unheard of family members causing undue stress to the mother and thereby emotionally or mentally coercing her into opting for a planned C-section delivery.
3. Women
Yes, we ourselves are also to be blamed to an extent. A lot of women tend to think that C-section deliveries are 'safer' than vaginal deliveries where 'anything can go wrong, and nothing is under control'. Some women also opt for planned C-section deliveries because they want to evade the pain of a normal delivery. The pain that they have to deal with for several days after the delivery is another story! Finally, there are women who want to plan their baby's birth depending on whether it is an auspicious day or not. This might not be so hard to believe, given that we are a country that actively believes in astrology.
Wrong Reasons To Have C-Section
1. Lapse in Estimated Delivery Date (EDD)
A lot of mothers and their family members often panic once the EDD lapses, and coerce the doctors to go for a C-section delivery. Alternatively they may even coerce the doctors to induce a vaginal delivery by inducing labour pains. Both practices are wrong. A baby that is forced out of a mother's womb before it is ready can suffer from serious respiratory complications and distress. It is normal for a woman to take upto 42 weeks to deliver a baby (9 months and 2 weeks). The EDD is only an estimate, after all!
2. For the Safety
It has been statistically proven that – the risk to a mother is same during both C-section and vaginal deliveries. It is untrue that it will be safer to go in for a C-section. In fact, the complications arising during prognosis of a C-section are far more severe than the prognosis of a vaginal delivery.
3. For the Ease and Convenience
It is important to realise – the pain during labour is far easier to deal with and is short lived, as compared to the long-term and at times irreversible health implications of a C-section.
Right Reasons To Have C-Section
A C-section delivery is recommended in case of high-risk births. A high-risk birth is when a vaginal childbirth poses a fatal risk to the mother or the baby. If and only if it can be said with certainty that the pregnancy and/or the delivery is going to be high-risk is it advisable to go for a C-section.
If the baby is not in the correct position (head down), or if the baby keeps on turning within the womb (called 'unstable lie')
If the umbilical cord is wrapped around the baby's neck and there is considerable risk of strangulation during a vaginal delivery
If the mother is HIV-positive, if she has any severe disease or medical condition (cancer, diabetes, epilepsy, a heart-condition, etc.)
If the baby has been detected with a congenital defect (Down's syndrome, Sickle-cell anaemia, etc.)
If the mother is expecting twins. Twin- or multiple-birth means twice the number of factors that need to be monitored, the biggest factor being position of the babies
For a mother who has had a C-section delivery before, there is considerable risk of the scar rupturing during the second delivery. However, it is also common for women to have had vaginal deliveries after having a previous C-section delivery
If the mother is suffering from central placenta praevia, pre-eclampsia or eclampsia
Educate Yourself
The latest scenario in India leaves no doubt: not every C-section delivery is necessary. So, how can you ensure you do not find yourself in a position where you had to go for a C-section you could have avoided? The best solution is to prepare and educate yourself.
Do not take the EDD so seriously. There is no scientific way of “predicting” the exact date of delivery... that's why it is called 'estimated' date anyway!
Even if you earlier pregnancy ended in a C-section delivery, it does NOT mean your second one has to end the same way too. It is possible to have a normal delivery after having a C-section too. Weight the pros and cons carefully before opting for a second C-section. Each pregnancy is different
Do your homework before choosing a gynaecologist, and hospital. Use your nine months of pregnancy to do complete and comprehensive research
Obesity, lifestyle, are very big and yet easily avoidable reasons for the increased percentage. Inform yourself better and take care of your health and body proactively
The Silver Lining
The good news is that our medical fraternity has started taking action to correct the situation. Many doctors are actively taking steps to curb the trend that is fast becoming common place throughout the country. It is important to spread awareness about such doctors, and to applaud their efforts.
Mumbai-based Dr. Rajiv Punjabi, of Tulip Women’s Health Care Center, has an 'equal charges' policy for C-section as well as vaginal deliveries. Dr. Pratibha Narayan, who is with The Birthplace, Hyderabad, is another doctor following this policy. Following Maneka's proposal, some hospitals have already started coming forward with data regarding their ratio of C-sections vs. normal deliveries.
As a parting thought, we would just like to say – knowledge is power. Take care of yourself - and don't forget to share this critical information with all your pregnant mommy friends. Read more
