Should I have a private early scan?

Hi all,

I'm 8 weeks tomorrow and I have my scan booked in when I'll be 13 weeks. This feels like a horribly long time away and I'm absolutely convinced that they'll fail to find a heart beat.

I'm so concerned about it that I'm considering paying for a private scan. My problem with this though is that my husband would think it was a terrible waste of money, especially because if it all goes wrong then there's nothing that £100 scan will do to change that. So, if I did have one I probably wouldnt tell him about it. I don't like the idea of seeing the baby for the first time (or not ) without him, seems wrong.

Ooh, I just don't know what to do
