Morning Ladies,
I keep reading on here about people going for early scans- is this something that everyone goes for or is it just if you have had a mc before?
Sorry if I sound really daft but I just kinda assumed that you had a scan at 12/ 16 weeks etc etc

This is my first pregnancy and my scan is a valentines day present for my OH and because I have no patience what-so-ever, so have paid for an early one with babybond tonight
Do you mind me asking how much you paid?
www.babybond.co.uk, lots of girls have used them, the site is worth a look cute pics of 4d scans x
I believe with MCs alot of places won't scan you early (and do other tests) unless you have had 3
14+6 x
We then paid privately for one when I was almost 12 weeks.
Bec 26+5 x

We had a private one and also ended up having one at epu last week due to pains.
We are having another private one on Monday when I will be 10+3. Overkill maybe but I had mmc last time and don't want to wait weeks hoping everything is ok if it's not.
Our first scan was ??100, second will be ??75.

It is a personal choice as to whether to have an early scan or not, the first 12 weeks can be a long wait but even if you have a scan at 7 or 8 weeks it is no guarantee everything will be ok at the 12 week scan. Good luck hun xx
Please help, I am panicing so so much xxx
Good luck hun, I really hope it turns out all right.

I am shaking like a leaf cos I'm so worried and I can't get hold of my husband! God, I hope everything is okay xxx
The nhs will provide them if you are having a high risk pregnancy and there is cause for concern. If there is viable concern from the start of your pregnancy and your baby does die, they need to show they monitered appropriately throughout your pregnancy or they are liable for any negative outcome. scans carry a risk to your baby so its not great. Also early scans are not done over the belly but internally with a large phallic wand. They are intrusive and unpleasant and as embaressing to the sonographer as they are to the recipient unless you enjoy being shafted by a stranger whilst whilst two doctors and a nurse watch.
I'm still bleeding and it's almost a constant thing now (every morning I have fresh blood then brown for the rest of the day) My doc has sent me for blood tests but isn't fussed at all so we're going for a private scan tonight.....
