Ive been a public patient for both my pregnancies. Ive always had a scan at 8 weeks (bulk bill), 12 weeks and 18 weeks. With this pregnancy i paid for the 12 week ultrasound ($300), cause i had the down syndrome testing done - this was our choice. I got about $100 back.

I dont know about adelaide, but in Syd you can have an ultrasound when you want (within reason). I simply said i didnt know when my period started, therefore my dates were out of wack, so i got a referral for a dating scan at 8wks prg.
