12 weeks, NT scan.

Dating scan's aren't routinely done. Generally your dates are more accurate anyway, presuming your cycles are reasonably regular. But if want/need one about 6-7 weeks is a good time.

We had scans at about 6 weeks, 8 weeks, 12 weeks, 20 weeks and again at 30 weeks admittedly we TTC for 5 years and a miscarriage 3 months before so the Fertility Clinic was over accomodating and reassuring to say the least.

I'll have a scan next week if I can, just gotta ring up and book it in cos I already have the referral. I heard the most common gestation for miscarriage is about 8 weeks, so I've always had a scan at around that time, just for reassurance, if that makes sense? My sister also had a miscarriage at 8 weeks, so I think its hard for me to believe its real unless I see it at that time....

However, I don't get the 12 week scan, just the 20 week one.

had 1 at around 4 weeks cos we weren't sure how far I was but didn't see much except the sack next was at 6 weeks and saw the HB then but didn't hear it, next we 12 weeks and my next 1 is at 19 weeks. Thinking of getting the 3D done but not sure if I can afford it

I had scans at 6 weeks, 9 weeks (had some bleeding) 12 weeks, 20 weeks, then 2 after 30 weeks. But in saying that I have diabetes so they were keeping a close eye on bubs

I was 100% sure of my dates so didn't have a dating scan. First scan was NT scan at 12 weeks.

Well I'm hoping to have had a u/s by the end of this week :-)

Dr sent me back for repeat HCG blood test just to make sure HCG levels continue to increase (not that there is any hint of there being anything wrong but just because the first blood test came back with an estimate of me being 2-3 wks, so 4-5 wks actually).

I'm getting the blood test on Monday, results on Tuesday, then hopefully I'll get a referal for a u/s as I've got little idea on dates other than what the blood test has indicated thus far.
