"12 week" scan at 11 weeks?

I am 10 weeks pg after mc. so happy! Had an early scan at 7 weeks and saw heartbeat which was just wonderful. My mw has scheduled my next scan for next week, when I will be 11 weeks rather than 12 weeks due to her annual leave commitments. I can't change to another mw. She also offered me a 13 week scan as an alternative but I don't have enough patience to wait until then for peace of mind that the baby is ok.
If things go well at the scan, my dh and I would like to tell friends and family our news afterward (so far it is a secret). Do you think that we will be safe to do so after an 11 week scan? It is slightly troubling me that we won't be out of the first trimester.
Thanks in advance for any advice

I was given my scan at 11 weeks but when I got the the scam they done measurements and said that for accurate mesaurements I need to be at least 12 weeks so I have to go back again for another dating scan

THe baby was perfect and I decided to go ahead and tell people anyway

Strictly you aren't out of the first trimester until 13 weeksWink

I would tell people if the scan is ok.

I have had 12 weeks scans at 9 and 10 weeks as no one believed me when I explained about a long cycle Smile

I think you would be fine to tell people.
