    Ouch! Do you need a scan? Can you just have a 20w scan, or none at all?

    Or can you shop around with sonographers?

    It's a dating scan. I could probably go without it..... but having had no bloods, and very mild symptoms I'd really like to see a hb. I could go without the 12wk scan too I suppose, but the morph scan is kinda important given DS's talipes. I'd like to know beforehand if I'm having another clubfoot baby so I can be prepared for the treatments. Of course this time I know what it's all about, but I'd like to keep the physio well informed so we can get treatment over and done with early on. Apparently the risk is higher if you've already had one? I'm not sure on that one though.

    I just like looking inside my uterus..... lol!

    I don't know about shopping around. My GP bulk bills and only goes through a certain company for ultrasounds. Last time the scans were free..... I'm wondering what's changed.
