Not having a u/s til 12 wks... very impatient!!

WHAT! i just payed $145 dollars for my morphology scan and they said i would get no rebate even witha healthcare card!

I have never paid for an ultrasound. I have always gone public though, through the antenatal clinic at the hospital, so any tests/ultrasounds they want done, I get for free. Mind you, if i had got the NT scan at 12 weeks I would have had to pay for that, because it is considered optional.

I had to pay for all of my ultrasounds with DS I think... The only ones I didnt pay for were growth scans I had done at the end of my pregnancy at the hospital at 35 and 39 weeks.

I get a sneak preview at every doc appointment, but thats one advantage of going private (mind you I pay prettily for every appointment!)

second pregnancy again didnt get one until 20weeks (paid but got some back from medicare) - did ask for earlier scan as GP couldnt find heartbeat for a few visits but was denied referral
