Scan tomorrow nervous & excited!!!!

[hmccarthy]

Hey all,

So im 8 weeks pregnant after suffering a miscarrige last year, so far this pregnancy has felt completely different, so this is positive sign right??? Still doesnt help me worrying every minute of the day!!!

I have got a private scan booked tomorrow as the NHS scan isnt until 26th October and by that time i will be 13 weeks!!!

Really nervous for tomorrow and will probably not get much sleep tonight

I keep telling myself think positive thoughts........

how much is ur private scan im 8 weeks also and would love one...xx

 

[hmccarthy]

Its £80, that was the cheapest i could find, some places charge as much as £120!!

 

[babyoneill]

where are you having it, i had one at 30 weeks with my 4 year old it was 120 with babybond, xx

I had a MC, before i fell pregnant with my son so like you i was very nervous and wernt sure what to expect, i went for a private scan at 8 weeks also, sooo glad i did

it will defo put your mind at rest, and you can start enjoying your pregnancy

A place in Thamesmead called A peek a boo imaging. Where do you live?

 

[hmccarthy]

Thats just it, at the moment i dont feel like i can enjoy my pregnancy as i know it could all be taken away again so quick. Trying to stay strong and positive hopefully all will be well and last time was a trial run.

I will keep you all posted!! x x

just saw that one. looked some up on google i have 4 weeks til my 12 week scan im not sure if i should wait tho as i had a scan at 6 weeks, im a scanaholic lol x

 

[hmccarthy]

The website looks really good and a few of my friends have recommended it. You dont have to wait long for an appointment either, (couple of days maybe).

I think they are defo worth the money 4 weeks is a long time to wait, when your as impatient as i am.

[babyoneill]

i know i really am impatient ha might have to book one x

 

[hmccarthy]

Go for it and good luck!!!!!!!

Good luck for tomorrow!

Where would I find who does private scanning in my area? Am I too early for one just yet? I get paid next week!

 

[hmccarthy]

I just typed "private pregnancy scans kent" into google and this one came up straight away.

I think they are good for all kinds of reasons. 12 wks is an awful long time to wait for the NHS one especially when so much can happen within these 12 wks. If anything is wrong then at least you know sooner rather than later.

Keep me updated on how you get on )

Good Luck x x x

Found one in Preston who does them for £99! Is that a reasonable amount?

They do it from 7-11 weeks, by the time I get paid, I will be 7+2! lol - oh gosh, I am nervous just thinking about it.

 

[hmccarthy]

I suppose thats kinda reasonable, you could probably find cheaper but you might have to go further a field.

I would say just go for it... you've got nothing to lose!!

I wish you all the luck in the world!! x x
