Anyone waiting on 12w scan at the end of the month?

The wait is agonising!
I have covid and been very poorly with lots of days of fever and exhaustion.
I am really worried about the pregnancy obviously.
Was supposed to have a private scan this week, but I am still sick and isolating so will have to wait for 28th my 12 scan on the 28th.

Anyone else waiting?

Yes on the 25th, I MC late last year so I'm hoping it'll put my mind at ease as I've been so anxious this T1.

@floofycroissant

Sorry to hear about your loss. We also had a MC before my DD so very aware that a smooth 12w scan is not guaranteed.
Did you have any scans so far?

I hope it will be good news for both of us x

No I haven't had any scans, just going to wait and see. Other than tiredness and acid reflux I've had no symptoms, which isn't helping to ease the worry.

My 12 week scan is on the 31st and the wait is agonising. I was tempted to book another private scan before then but don't know if it'll help me or give me something else to get anxious about.
Mmc after ivf in November so extremely anxious. Just wishing the days away atm

Mine is a week tomorrow I will be 12+5, I've had 3 private scans in the mean time due to previous MC's all sticking to that same EDD.

LawrenceChaney22 · 14/03/2022 12:52

Mines is one week today, I will be 12 weeks 5 days. Been waiting for this day to come since end of Jan ! Had a scan at early pregnancy unit due to bleeding at 6 weeks and had two private ones since then, again due to bleeding.

I had so many scans before the 12 weeks, I couldn't handle the anxiety of waiting. I had a reassurance scan on the NHS at around 7 weeks which I was so grateful for, and then the week before the 12 weeks I couldn't handle the waiting so went in for a private one, which was also great.

frenchie4002 · 14/03/2022 18:26

Me! Mines on the 28th. I had a private one at 8w3d and all looked good so really hopeful for some more good news. I had a MMC last October so constantly worrying x

Nikki037297 · 14/03/2022 18:29

I’m coming up 11 weeks and I had a scan at 8 weeks all was good then I had covid then I had a stomach bug! Still waiting for my 12 week scan but I have my booking app tomorrow over the phone at last

How long did it take everyone to hear back from their hospital out of interest? Sent in a self referral form on Thursday and wondering at what point I should chase ?!

floofycroissant · 14/03/2022 18:53

Self referred at 8 weeks and heard back in around a week which I thought was pretty fast

Let's keep each other company!

@Circe22 i dont know because I am not in the UK. I have a gynecologist here for all my appointments and scans.

frenchie4002 · 14/03/2022 19:23

@Circe22 I heard back in around 10 days

Circe22 · 14/03/2022 19:28

Thanks for all the replies! I’m feeling very impatient

Aubyone · 14/03/2022 22:32

I also have my 12w scan on the 28th! (had a private one at 8w4 which was great and sooo tempted to book another but I should be able to wait 2 more weeks for the 12w one!). The wait is difficult yes, but the last 2 weeks at least seem to have flown for some reason.
