I don't think I get one unless something is wrong.

I won't get one unless something is wrong with the regular belly measurement or the doctor feels that something makes it necessary.

I did not (and am 30 weeks now). Some people do tho and not always for complications.

And I think you can pay for a 3D/4D if you want, but I never looked into that.

I think I remember a tech at LIJ saying the growth sonogram - if you have one - usually takes place around the 33rd week - sometime around there.

exactly, I am 36 weeks and I did not think I was getting one until last week, when I was measuring 3 weeks ahead. I am going for a growth sono next Thursday (I will be 37w, 2d)

Re: growth sono... WHEN do you go?

I don't think I'm getting on either. I didn't have one with my first. It's my understanding you only have on if they think the baby is too big, too small or possibly breach.

Re: growth sono... WHEN do you go?

Not everyone gets one. I just had mine at 33 weeks, but I didn't think I was getting one till my last appointment. Honestly, after going, it seems totally worthless, other than seeing him again. I don't believe their estimate will be accurate and if you check parenting, I just recently asked about 3rd tri sonos vs what your baby actually was, and it really seemed like a crap shoot to me.
