private scan booked! *Updated with scan photo!*

[eightball]

Hi,
I'm so excited!!
A few weeks ago I was on here a bit disappointed because my booking scan wasn't going to be until I was 12 weeks. But I thought I'd wait and see how soon they'd book my first scan and I was hoping it'd be before then so at last I could be reassured that there is actually something in there.
But I got my scan date yesterday and it was for week 14! Miiiiles away!
So for my own sanity I've just booked a private dating scan for tomorrow!!! YAY! I thought they'd be all booked up but it was no problem at all, and now I'm so excited and sick and nervous.
How am I supposed to concentrate on work now?

Oh wow!

How exciting for you....just you wait untill you see that little heartbeat fluttering around (too early to hear it but you can see it from 6 weeks onwards) it's a truely amazing experience. Enjoy every second and get loads of pictures too!!

Oh that's brilliant eightball you won't regret it I had one at 7 weeks and it was the best money I ever spent puts your mind at rest and as your almost 10 weeks you should be able to see a lot best of luck for tomorrow hun.

Private scans are the best, you can usually get one with 24 hours of calling. The one I had was £75 and in the grand scheme of things that's not much.

I had one on Wednesday night. Got to see my baby's heart beat and now I really feel that everything is going to be OK this time

My first NHS scan isn't till 1st March and I know that I'd have spent every minute of the next 5 weeks worrying needlessly.

Good luck with you scan I hope it brings you good news and peace of mind

If you can afford it (or put some pennies aside early on) then a private scan was the BEST thing I've done this pregnancy. Had one at 18 weeks and it was amazing to watch and you get the DVD so can watch it over and over again. Ive ripped certain frames off my dvd to make a little movie for OH's relatives who live abroad so they're included.

It lost a lot of quality in the conversion but you'll see how clear that is so imagine the quality of the original! Look at the frame straight after the monkey and you'll see him stick his tongue out

[eightball]

I'm back from the scan and it turns out there is really a baby in there!

As you can imagine I'm so relieved! Everything went great, I saw the heartbeat and even got a little wave. *PHEW* Now I can start to enjoy the fact that I don't feel very sick!
I still feel sick about telling parents though! Wish me luck!
