My wife is 16 weeks pregnant right now. Her first trimester scan at 8 weeks was normal, showing a single live intrauterine pregnancy. Shes currently out of town at her moms place, and were trying to figure out when the anomaly scan (second trimester scan) should be done. Whats the best time frame for this scan? She needs to come back and schedule it accordingly. Just trying to be cautious in case of any complications, especially with the outdated MTP Act here.

The Anomaly scan (second trimester scan) is typically performed between 18-22 weeks of gestation, so your wife should plan to return and schedule the scan around 18-20 weeks, i.e., within the next 2-4 weeks.
