My GP sent me for a dating scan at 5 weeks 4 days, it was also to make sure it wasnt an Ectopic pregnancy as i was on the pill. You couldnt really see much, was just a black sack with some white specks in it.. no heartbeat as yet as it was still too early. But thats all it was for.. to check dates and Ectopic. Though i did my scan through a clinic, not the hospital. Theyre easy to book into, you just need a doctor's referral. I didnt book into the hospital until about 8 weeks or so, but in my first appointment (at 14 weeks) letter, it tells you to bring a copy of any ultrasounds or blood test, so im sure it would be ok if you were to go else where and have a scan, then have one with the hospital at 13 weeks? Either that or give them a call back and ask for one earlier?
