Nah, the staff at the public hospital AND my GP were completely *against* me 'wasting resources' by having another u/s when I was spotting/bleeding during pregnancy. Even when I had a miscarriage the doctor at the hospital refused to give me an u/s. 'If the bleeding's that bad, I'd say it's a done deal, no point tying up the u/s tech when I can just get you back tomorrow for a blood test to confirm'...
I'm always flabbergasted at the amount of u/s's YOU girls seem to get during your pg's lol... I seriously think I would have had to have been in a pile-up in a freeway to get a check-up u/s from any doctor I saw during either of my pregnancies - I had to even fight to get dating scans at the beginning of my pg's (I just wanted to see my little beans growing, I didn't actually care about the dates lol)

Have been thinking of you, FirstTime... hope you're feeling better and that your mind is more at ease. Rest up, give DP a smack round the back of the head and try not to stress too much! Glad all appears to be well.
