Internal Scan
I am due my 7???? week scam on 4th December. Can anyone calm my fears about this? Is it dangerous at all for the pregnancy? Is it painful? I'm a bit worried. My first baby and totally clueless!!

I had a couple of early internal scans, they are not at all dangerous for the baby as they only go as they don't go very far in. I found it totally painless but a bit uncomfortable when they move it around to get views of the baby. The best way to describe it is like a dildo! They even put a condom on it and loads of ky jelly to makes sure it goes in easily.
Good luck!

What's assisted conception? I noticed your sign in name and wondered of you were 'going it alone' with a sperm donor?
Good for you if you are, or is my imagination running away with me?!

I had wondered about it as ap option before I met my OH, but I'm not sure I'd have the guts to actually do it.
Do you get to choose your sperm and find out the characteristics of the man who produced it?
Hope all goes well for you.

I had a transvaginal scan at 6+5 and can echo what the others have said, its not painful just slightly uncomfortable when they move it around to alter the view.
You will be absolutely fine and its worth it to see your babys heartbeat, just incredible xx
