A. completely normal to have questions about the timing of your prenatal tests. While every doctor's schedule varies slightly, here is the general reasoning for those tests at the start of your 7th month (roughly 28 weeks) The Glucose TestThis is standard practice for almost all pregnancies between 24 and 28 weeks. It screens for gestational diabetes—a type of high blood sugar that can develop during pregnancy The Growth Scan (at 7 months vs. 8 months)While some clinics wait until 32 weeks (8 months), many doctors prefer a scan at 28 weeks

A. Every scan is meant to be done at a particular time so looking at this also I would recommend you that you please go ahead with as Dr has recommended and if you want to get it done later than you have to confirm with your doctor
