2 weeks to go til 12 week scan. I saw the heartbeat at 8 weeks but I'm still anxious. Anyone else in the same boat?

I am not in the same boat at the moment, but felt absolutely the same as you between the heart beat scan and 12 weeks.
I actually went for a private scan at 9 weeks and found that really helped. I chose a reputable company who specialise in early scans and the scan was given by a qualifies sonographer. Some of the private scan companies are nothing more than a glorified photoshoot, so don't offer a huge amount of reassurance. At 9 weeks we were able to see little 'nubs' where the baby's arms and legs would grow and the baby moving around - it was truly amazing. We went back for a scan at 17 weeks and have kept in touch with the lady who did the scans, regularly sending her photos of DS as he grows up on "the outside".
I appreciate that this might not be for everyone, but it is definitely an option xx
