Did you have your preterm/Obstetrics appointment on the same day as your 12 week dating scan?

For my last pregnancy the appointment was sheduled immediately after my dating scan.

This time it has been booked for 13 weeks 6 days and I'm worried my 12 week dating scan will be booked for the same day (I'm yet to receive the letter.)
If they date my pregnancy over 14 weeks, I won't be able to have the combined test, and I'm it's making me really anxious. I wondered if anyone else has been in the same situation and could tell me your apps were on the same day. Thanks

Are you consultant led?
I just saw the midwife at my booking in appointment, then had 12 week scan, 16 week midwife appointment followed by 20 week scan.

I can't remember with my first but when I was trying for my second I had my Obstetrician appointments were all booked for after the dating scan.

My scan dates came through for ~ 12 weeks and my Obstetrician appointments 14-16 weeks.

Later in the pregnancy they booked the growth scans for the same day as the obstetrician clinic days and I saw her afterwards.

Im the same as @Superscientist- my dating scan was booked for 12+5 and my first obstetrician appointment is at 15 weeks. How many weeks are you now OP?
