I can totally understand you wanting scans to check on your next bub! I feel the same way. With my DD I was having scans the whole way through from 7-38 weeks fortnightly, and sometimes 2 in one week! It started off early as I had very high anxiety as I had lost a bub before and hated the fact that I hadn't been "allowed" a scan which would have picked up the missed miscarriage. Though from 9 weeks, I was scanned so often as DD had a high nuchal measurement and we were told she would not survive, therefore, we were closely monitored with scans, cvs testing, heart scans etc. Even when it looked like bub was going to be ok, I still needed the scans for my sanity. She was born happy and healthy, but I can tell you that the regular scans were the only thing that helped ease my anxiety for a few days knowing she was alive!

Next time, I will def be asking for an early scan as I hate that so many woman have missed miscarriages but aren't found out till 12-13 weeks when the baby has been gone for weeks! I am lucky my Ob has a good machine in his rooms so I dont have to always be sent to a specialist place. I know I won't be able to have them every fortnight again (well unless its a complicated pregnancy again) and I am ok with it, but I know just 2 ultrasounds the whole pregnancy would not do!
