With Olivia I had an internal at 7 weeks becasue I had had a previous missed miscarriage, so my OB and I wanted the peace of mind that comes with an early u/s.

With this pregnancy, same thing, he offered me an early one and I gladly took the opportunity!

The internal one gives a very clear picture and whilst is not particularly dignified, is not uncomfortable or apinful or anything.....the probe is only the size of a pen!
