The wait to the 20 week scan-anyone else?

Just wondering if anyone else is in the wait period before their 20 week scan ?
Mines not until 9th April ! I’m 14 weeks 1 day currently .
Anxiety is KILLING ME , so I have booked a private but that’s still not until 16th March (I wanted to do it where it was 4 weeks after 12 week scan and about 4 weeks until the 20 week ). But even that just seems forever away 🤣 I have no symptoms really now so it’s literally living the unknown every day hoping baby is still there - so irrational right ? I have no reason to be worried, it’s my first pregnancy so that’s probably why I am feeling this way.
Anyone else with me ?

Same boat here too! I'm 18+4 today, and scan isn't until the 17th, but it's starting to feel a lot closer, thank goodness. We're just really impatient to hopefully find out the gender, and also I'd like the reassurance of knowing all is still well in there!

So happy there are others in the same boat! I’m 14+3 & I’m still waiting for the letter for my 20 week scan!! I’ve also booked a gender scan for the 15th March but it seems too far away :( I’ve been having the worst anxiety dreams regarding loss etc & over analysing any lack of symptoms! It feels like far too long to put people through lol!!

I am so glad it isnt just me! I swear I'm worried I'm losing it.

I am currently 15 weeks and 6 days pregnant and the wait for the 20 week scan is literally torture.
I cant feel baby yet and the symptoms have all calmed down so I just feel fat and not pregnant, its horrid.
I just cant relax, im so worried about it and I already had private scans at week 6 and 10 so my other half thinks me having another is just excessive and to think positive. Men dont seem to get it!

Couldn't wait any longer and had a private scan today at 16+6 weeks.

Our baby (GIRL!) is cooking perfectly xx

@sel2223 congrats!Grin was the image clearer than the 12 week scan? I’ve got mine on Sunday where I’ll be 17+4 so I’m hoping it’s clearer and more defined than the 12 week one so I can see baby’s features more. DH is adamant it’s a girl and I have a feeling it’s a boy so we’re excited to find out and narrow down names!

Thank you @Annafs it was very clear on the screen and we got a good look at baby's face.
They're still very skeletal at this stage so hard to see features as such but could see everything was as it should be....right down to how many fingers and toes.
Good luck for Sunday xx
