Hi all,
I am currently 10 weeks pregnant and have had 5 scans so far, 1 every week since week 5.
I have had a miscarriage in December but decide to not wait until after my first period, and got pregnant again. In advance, I had booked a scan at end of January just to confirm if my cervix has health completely after my first period. Instead, they saw a pregnancy sack which I expected. They wanted to confirm the pregnancy so booked another scan for a week after. In the next 2 weeks I have had pains and was anxious about another miscarriage so kept going for a check up. After I had a private booked reassurance scan yesterday at 10w0d (all looked as it should be), I came across an article saying that too many pregnancy scans are not safe. Now I am panicking that I have caused some harm to my baby. And I am not sure if I should do the 12 week scan either but there are some health checks happening with it. I am super worried. Anyone with experience with too many scans is welcome to leave a comment.
Thanks,
Yana
