Being an American new to the UK (only been here 6mo), and newly pregnant, I'm confused when scans are supposed to happen. I'm not booked to see the midwife until 17 March. I had a miscarriage in early Jan. (was only about 3weeks along), and stopped bleeding around 10 Jan. This is the date they are basing my due date on. So according to this date, I will be 10 weeks pregnant when the MW sees me for the first time on 17 March. When I booked the first MW appt, I also booked the first scan - which isn't until 8 April when I will be approx. 13weeks pregnant. Since that will be my first scan, will this just be a dating scan, or will it also include a Nuchal test? If not, when can I expect to have that test done? Being 35, and my OH 39, we are pretty concerned about anomaly testing and don't want to miss the window. Tbh, we're seriously considering the Harmony test, since it seems so definitive. If it makes a difference, I'm in Edinburgh. Can anyone please shed some more light on this? Thanks!
