12 week scan anxiety

[samjacklogi88]

Hello everyone I'm almost 11 weeks pregnant with my second baby first scan is in 3 weeks but I can't help worrying that there will be something wrong and my anxiety about is really annoying convinced there be nothing there I had strong symptoms and suffered terrible sickness since week 7 and it very bad in the evenings so I have no real reason to think anything should be wrong I worried in my first pregnancy but my fears seem worse this time any reassurance or friendly advice would be appreciated

Hey,

if you can afford it I'd recommend going for a private scan to help put your mind at rest. 3 weeks is a long time to wait when you're feeling so anxious.

I'm 17 weeks now with my first and have had 4 scans so far (1 NHS and 3 private). I had private scans at 8 weeks, 10 weeks and 15w 4d and it was so reassuring to see our baby was where he should be and progressing well. Definitely worth the money if you can afford it x
