I had two dating scans this time, because my midwife thought that the first one was too early to be most accurate. She says the ones between 10 and 12 weeks give the best numbers...? I didn't mind having another peek at baby, but the ultrasound tech seemed to think I must have ordered the second scan myself. (You've already had a dating scan? Why are you having another scan? Was there a problem? Well your dates are the same as last time [actually they were a week off] so there's no reason for another scan....) Sorry! I didn't order it!
With midwives, I have always gotten a 12 week scan done. When I was under the care of my GP, (who is also great) I only had a 20 week scan.
Speaking of which, I have my "big" scan tomorrow! I'll be 19 weeks, and I can't wait to see how this little one is growing, and hopefully to find out what he/she is! I would be totally happy either way, but I REALLY want to know!
Aimz - I read and commented on your birth story. You did a great job of writing it, and a great job of bringing your baby into the world. I'm so glad to hear that you're feeling more at peace with the whole situation.
