When did you all get your dating scans in the UK? - Page 2

Mines at 12+6, but I've already had an early scan, maybe ring MW and mention your concerns, she may be able to put you on the list for any cancelled scans!

Hey

I never had my first appointment with the midwife until I was 10 weeks 4 days. I have my first scan on the 18th of this month and I will be 13 weeks and 1 day. xxx

Mine is at 13+1

Thanks everybody you have put my mind at ease that this is the norm!! Feeling a lot better after thinking about it for a day and i'm sure it will go super fast and as you say there will be so much more to see at 12+ weeks

also not as long for me to wait until my second scan then which is great!

Thanks again x

I had my booking appointment with the midwife at 10 weeks andcp had my scan at 12w5d. With my first I didn't have my dating scan until I was 15 weeks!! Xx

12 to 13 weeks is the norm, anything earlier then that and they cant check properly for abnormalities.
Its annoying having to wait bur it tealy is better to wait and have a proper full scan

Are you not having the downs test, thats to late to test properly for down because the measurments are very differant after 13+6 the other test if you cant get that is a quad test done by bloods rather then scan measurments

12 +5

The older the baby is the more you can see.....it's worth the wait!

I told my doctor at exactly 5 weeks and my booking appointment isn't until im 15+1, that will be the first time I've met a midwife or spoke to anyone since I told my doctor 10 weeks prior

I felt I couldn't wait that long and paid for a private scan at 12 weeks.
