First scan booked...not sure on date

Got my scan booking today, for Sept 6th. Pretty sure I'll be going back again 2 weeks later though! Happy to be proved wrong, but I'm sure I'll only be 10 weeks. Exciting nevertheless!

Ooo fab! Oh well you might get two 12 week scans exciting times ahead for you xx

They will just give u one chick I had one at 10 weeks then I had my detailed at 20 weeks x

Yeah, It happens at times

I think it just depends on the time you may have notified your G.P of pregnancy, but never-less they wont mind giving you a scan a few weeks early.

Good luck!

Thanks ladies. I think I was also hoping a scan actually at 12 weeks would be a safe announcement milestone too. If it's earlier then I still have a couple of weeks of being unsure whether to tell anyone. Also is a 10 week scan actually going to give us a decent pic?

The 1st scan is never usually a decent picture " in my view" anyway.

the 20wk scan one is much better especially if you can get a view of the gender bits. Haha

I had to have a scan at 8 wks due to a bleed and the scan pic looked like a bouncing peanut shell. Then my 12wk scan came at 13wks and it was a very clear pic of an actual baby. I'd imagine at 10wks that u'd see the transition from peanut to baby. its so exciting!! plus, if u are 10 weeks, they would need u back for a scan between 11 and 13+5 as its a very small window of opportunity to get the nuchal measurement at back of baby's neck. Keep us updated doris xx

Hope we do see something a bit more baby shaped as I showed hubby some online pics of what bean looks like now and I think he was a bit wierded out LOL. He'll have to man up on the gross factor if he's going to enjoy alien baby movements and birth!
