I had 5 u/s scans with DS. First was to "date" me (but they ignored everything I said and the scan), second was a 12w scan that DH wanted, 3rd and 4th were the 20w scans as the first was too early (well d'oh, I have 6w cycles not 4w ones, wonder why you want me back in a fortnight) and 5th was at about 30w because bump was "too small".

Next time, I'm not having any scans. Because I'm not telling anyone I'm pg, so I won't have the chance. I would like scans for no reason and people not knowing I am pg! I loved seeing my baby and knew he was fine, so the scans had no medical meaning for me. Although the amount of rude medical people who saw me whilst pg meant that the scans were the only medical things I looked forward to - that and seeing my GP. I booked in with her more than the midwives because I get on with her! But even she is against me actually giving birth so she isn't going to know I'm pg until I tell her I've had a baby. (Going to be fun as I see her and a midwife socially at least once a month.)
