Hi I think ultrasounds are pretty safe I’ve had 4 already I’m nearly 17w, but for dating they put me 6 days ahead at the 12w scan and that’s the final dating, but I’ve just had a private scan said I’m now measuring a little smaller but said it’s fine within the normal which probably matches more my lmp date so good knows hopefully everything is fine I don’t think you can fully stop worrying.

No they’re fine, when I had IVF I had weekly scans up to 13 weeks and he’s now 18 months old xxx
