That's my question, really.
Was away for a month in my first trimester and having mc my first two pregnancies at about 6 weeks, didn't know how booking in worked and that I should have called the midwife around 8 weeks.
Now have my first MW appt at 11w5 and my first trimester scan booked for 13w2. I've already had an early scan so dates are secure.
My concern is that I'm starting too late to have time to book / get results from CVS if needed, consider all options carefully, and then still have a choice about management of a termination if that's what we chose.
Realise it may never come to any of this and apologise if my 'what if' questions are insensitive on a board where so many women are dealing with these horrible choices. My previous mcs have made me a bit fatalistic about pregnancy, so have an urge to prepare for the 'best' of bad outcomes if possible.
Would appreciate any input on whether it's worth considering a private scan around 12w. Would NHS CVS be available if results were worrying? And what are the limits on different types of termination? Thanks.
