... leaving things till the last minute :/
lol, I will explain... I have my 20wk scan tomorrow (excited much!
) and I have my Mum, my Nana, and my OH's Mum all wanting to come with if it's doable.. well I thought I'll ring the hospital to find out if it were but I left it till today to do 
so I get the appointment sheet out for maybe the 3rd time since getting it (I got it at my 12wk scan) to get the number, and I notice, for the first time, that my scan is based in a hospital that is over 2hrs travel away when I had assumed it would be at the one half an hour away! Shocked by this first thing I do is talk to OH's parents about what we're going to do as they're the ones that were meant to be taking me and OH to the scan, we have a big discussion and decided on ringing to see if there is anyway I could be transferred to a closer hospital, proper stressing at this point because I'd feel so guilty making OH's parents drive that far just to sit in a waiting room and that if I could transfer I'd have to wait another couple weeks to see bean...I ring and explained to the guy my situation and asked if there was anything that could be done... he took my details and then burst out laughing! Turns out they had recently installed a new computer system and it had been a clerical error! The hospital's name half an hour away starts with the same letter as the place that had been put down on my letter! So all that stress for nothing lol but still I really should have checked sooner!
