How many ultrasounds do mommies usually get?

Hello ladies,
I know this may vary since some women get more ultrasounds than others. But what is considered standard? And around what periods? I'm 7wks2days and I've had two so far. Yesterday, we heard the heartbeat! 151:) I had my first one early because I was cramping.

I've had three so far and having the 20 weeks gender ultrasound on Friday. I'm in Oregon. My cousin just had her son a and she had one each time she went in. I think it depends on the doctor as well as area.

I've had  ultrasounds so far.
I'm 35+5weeks and I'm getting 1 or 2 more ultrasounds before my due date on Oct 9th.
I have on and off high blood pressure so that's why I've had so many.
I'm from Illinois btw.

I've only had two one when I was 7 weeks to measure the baby and to get a good estimate on how far I was and another at 20 weeks for the gender. I asked if I would be getting any more and they said no thy only do more if there is something wrong. ***** cuz I would've liked to have atleast one more ..

I would have only had 1 during my first pregnancy (16 weeks ultrasound) but I ended up having 2 because they thought my baby had turned breech.

I got one at 8 weeks,  12 weeks for first trimester screening and 20 weeks for anatomy scan. I got a 3d ultrasound at 28 weeks.  Not sure if I will get another one or not.  Some people get more. . Some people get less.
