Would you have a second reassurance due to dissapeared symptoms?

[maybe baby]

Hi Girls

I spoke to my midwife and told her I was a bit worried about my symptoms having disappeared for the last week and she said I could have another scan on Monday 8 days before my 12 week one....

I have no bleeding and a little cramping, would you take up the offer??

Am I being silly worrying about my symptoms going at 10 weeks??

Is it worth it so I don't spend the next week worrying??

Thanks...

Xx

If it's free then why not

Id go for it!

I would jump at the chance if they gave me one I'm having trouble even chasing up my 12 week scan. X

The more scans the better !!

I have 5 weeks between my private one and my 12 week one and if I have any worries I'll book another private scan in-between

So annoyed that given my history I haven't been able to get an early scan on NHS, but I'll happily pay whatever it costs for peace of mind!

Best of luck

Sorry my post above sounds so petulant and spoilt.

I know the NHS are vastly underfunded and oversubscribed when it comes to early pregnancy care and I know if there were any problems the EPU would be amazing as they have been previously....

I should consider myself lucky I don't need their assistance

Eek! Thanks girls I guess I'll go for it then, only thing is hubby can't come, my mum can though, also what if they cancel the 12 week one? Im meant to have the nuchal scan then too.

Carnat, you're not sounding spoilt at ALL if I was you I'd be demanding one for sure!! Have you asked both your gp and you hospital doc assuming you've got one?

Nat - do what I did. ..

Go to the docs and burst in to tears and scare them into giving you a scan

It wasn't my plan, but its what happened and I got to make sure peanut was ok xx

 

[kaz1983]

Maybe.....they wont cancel the 12 week scan as on Monday from what Ive been told you wont be far enough on to have the nuchal scan. I was told and have read you need to be 11 + 4 for them to do this.xx

Thanks!
