Ultrasounds offer essential insight into maternal and fetal health—but interpreting the findings and knowing what to do next can feel overwhelming for midwifery students and new graduates. In this episode of The EngagED Midwife, Cara and Missi take a deep dive into the most common (and most confusing) ultrasound findings in OB/GYN practice. Whether it’s a low-lying placenta, a thickened nuchal fold, or an unusual fetal measurement, we’ll break down what it means, when to consult, and how to manage it. Practical, focused, and rooted in real clinical scenarios—this is your go-to guide for making confident, evidence-based decisions in practice. #TheEngagEDMidwife #UltrasoundInPractice #MidwiferyEducation #OBGYNultrasound #NewGradMidwife #ClinicalConfidence
