Congratulations on your BFP! If you or your doc are unsure about the dates the you may be offered a dating scan which, as someone said before, is done about 6 weeks. You won't see much at that point other than possibly a little peanut shape with a blinking bit (the heart). Most people have a scan at about 12 weeks (where they do tests for downs) and then another at between 18-20 weeks which is the morphology scan. Some Obs also do a "viability" scan at your first visit to them. My first visit with my Ob was at 10 weeks (could have gotten in earlier but had to go away for Uni) and I had a viability scan in her rooms. Nothing flash, just to make sure there is a heart beat etc. I have a friend who likened bubs (whom I call Bubbles BTW!) to an axolotial (sp?)! I then had my 12 week ultrasound two weeks later and the changes were AWSOME!
