Hi hon
Here in the UK u dont get an ultrasound scan until ure 12 to 13 weeks. My dating scan which wud of been my first scan this pregnancy is on Tuesday and I will be 13 weeks. Its such a long time to wait so I booked 2 privet scans. I had one at 7+1 and another at 9+1 is there anyway you cud do that? If they wont scan you sooner?
I went to a place called baby bond. I'm going back there at 16 weeks to find out what I'm having a boy or a girl and I think they check for adnormiltys so then I wont have to worry about the 20 week scan when it comes around.
I had my booking in appointment with the midwife at 8 weeks and all she did was basically what u just said. She went through all my medical history and gave me my maternity notes. She did my blood pressure but no scan and she didnt even attempt to hear the HB. They wont do that here until after 12 weeks.
I feel for you hon all the waiting is just not good. Really hope u get to see ure little beany on a scan real soon.
