The agonising wait for first midwife appt / scan

Honestly - I thought the 2WW was ages...the wait for the first appointment is agonising!

I don't remember it being this long with DS1, but we didn't tell anyone about my pregnancy until after the scan. I'm not sure if because our family/close friends know now it all feels longer?

I've caved and booked a private scan for Friday as I'm feeling more anxious in general about wanting to just check that all is okay.

So come join me in our wait!

Can I join?
My early scan is on Monday!
So the wait to early scan is long but the wait to 12w and then 20w is even longer 😅
🥲🥲🥲🥲
With mt first I had to book a private scan in between both 🙃

How far along will you be?

I've had mine now but I very much know how you're feeling. The time seemed to go so slowly! It didn't help that my first midwife appointment was at 10+3 and my scan was 13+1 so I had to wait a little longer than I assumed I would.

I'll be 8+1 on Friday for an early scan.

My booking appt is 10wks and first scan is 11+6. But I just couldn't wait another 4wks to know if it's okay!
