Hi girls!
I'm 8 weeks pregnant, and only got my scan for beginning April. Was doing the math, and it will be around the 14weeks.
I will call the GP as i would like to do an ES. Do you think they will do it? there are so many problems that can be avoided with an Early Scan. And I'm a bit scared, just want some reassurance to hear that everything is alright in the early stages.

Xx congrats everyone

Hi and welcome.

NHS don't do early scans unless you're having problems or have had in previous pregnancies I believe.

The old '12 week' scan is now known as the 'dating' scan because they do it anywhere between 12-16 weeks I think.

I haven't had a date yet and don't think I will get one until after my MW app on 22nd March.

I've booked a private reassurance scan which is what a few other ladies have done on here too.

There's lots of places that do them if you google for your area and they range from about £60-£100

Hope that helps!

 

[Kaolla]

Yes that helps!
What about a first appointment with a doctor so they can tell you what to do and not to do?
I have my midwife appointment at same time as DS in April. My GP only spoke with me on the phone, and told me if my belly hurts or if I start to loose blood, to call them again.
For the ES, i was actually already looking at private clinics to do this. And saw prices that go up to 200 pounds if you choose a doctor to carry the exam. It will depend on the clinic, i know.
Thanks!

Hey ladies, so I went for my early reassurance scan in Nottingham yesterday afternoon! It was £79 at a clinic called Luxe Private Clinic, I would thoroughly recommend anyone to go and have an early scan if you were feeling slightly nervous like myself! I also wanted to find out if it was a multiple pregnancy as well! As this is my first baby & first pregnancy I had no idea what to expect. I estimated to be 8 weeks & 5 days today, but according to the measurements done by the sonogropher, I actually measured at 8 weeks exactly today, so around 5 days out but never mind! I do think it sucks to have to wait until 12 weeks, especially as some people find out so early (I found out at nearly 4 weeks) so it feels like I've been waiting a life time! The sonogropher yesterday gave me 8 pictures with folders and notes to give my MW! I'll attach some pics! Can't wait to see baba at 12 weeks now and see how much the beans grown! Definitely feels much more real now x

Great pic Ellsbells. Glad everything went ok xx

Great pic Hun, I nearly booked there but went with a place on the outskirts of Mansfield as its a bit easier to get to from work.

Hi ladies just catching up on everything since yesterday. I hope you ladies experiencing some spotting are ok and thinking of you. I had some bleeding around the sac past couple of weeks but haven't been passing any. They told me that it's very normal this early on and even normal for ladies to pass some blood too. So keep an eye out but try not to worry too much (I know much easier said than done!)
I have had a scan this morning I am 7 weeks and 3 days. All seems good and the bleeding round the sac has cleared. Some slight nausea on and off but much better when I eat. EDD from today's scan is 16th October.
Take it easy ladies xxx

Lovely scan photo!

I hope everyone has had a lovely mothers day It was my sons 2nd birthday today also! We had a lot of fun, we went to Build-A-Bear and had a party at our local soft play area.

 

[SLHRK]

Hi ladies, hope you are all well! Haven't been on much over the weekend. I'm feeling very down in general, although I have nothing to be down about as everything is great! I've had pains on the right hand side of my torso since Tuesday. They come and go but it is worrying me as I just don't feel 'as pregnant' as I have! I know it will all be fine but I am going to mention it to the midwife on Wednesday. I considered getting a Doppler and trying it but at my scan I was told that I have a backwards tilted uterus, so would imagine I won't find a heartbeat as I never have in the external ultrasounds I've had until now xx

 

[russellmuscle]

I keep getting random stabbing pains in my torso usually around the rib or side. Ive just thought its probably things shifting about... Or wind. I blame everything on wind

Hope all is well but your not alone.

Plus Ive still not had full blown sickness which Im weary of. Tonight I feel quite light headed and shakey, had a few migraines but not much else. Oh and lots of sleep. My mum says the other day she thought id went into hybernation she called twice and I was asleep
