    They will do a dating scan if you are unsure of your dates. Other than that, you have to wait until the NT scan, or the 18 week scan.....sorry....

    it can be practice that the antenatal clinic will only do the admin of the 18 week scan. To get a dating scan or the 12 week NT scan is still 'optional' and many ppl find they organise it through their GP (this is more often the case if you are going public...i remember when i went private with DD1 it was organised through my OB, but this time i had to do it all through GP itms).

    HTH!

    I had a dating scan at 6 weeks because my GP wasn't sure of my dates because my cycles had been irregular, even though I explained to him about charting and temping etc and therefore I knew the exact date when I had o'd. Go and see your GP and they will prob send you for a dating scan. It made a huge difference to how I felt about my pregnancy to be honest.
