yep, that does seem a long time to wait .......... I too like Sazz went through Repromed (icsi) and am 10 weeks on Saturday. They did a 7 week and 8 week scan before passing me over to the Womens and Childrens.
It maywell pay to call them as they have been SO helpfull, I'm sure you just want your mind being put at ease ( especially if high risk).
My first Antenatal was last Monday at the Womens & Childrens and it was for about an hour (going through deatailed history of previous ectopics & m/c). They seemed very thorough, but as I had had 2 recent scans, they were not going to do one. They just did a urine sample and blood pressure. Offered me the Nuchal scan (now booked for 9th Jul as 36 yrs old) and put me at slighty higher risk because of epilepsy.
I think you need to push for earlier scan and also ask to be advised about some early screening procedures. If no good, then looks like you are gonna have to pay private. If you get a Dr at Flinders called Jenny Cook she is lovely !!!! She basically saved my life after a 13 week ectopic pregnancy ruptured my tube, also ....................... she recently was in the news for delivering a baby mid flight on way to New Zealand !!!!
