Just got my positive test and so excited but also clueless about timelines. When did u all get your first scan done? dont want to go too early or too late. pls share.
Usually around 6-8 weeks they do the first scan to confirm and check the heartbeat. Sometimes the doc waits till 7-8 weeks so the heartbeat is clearly seen. Your gynac will schedule based on your dates.
I am 6 weeks now and my gynac said come at 8 weeks for the first scan. So I think it depends a bit on your dates? Mine wanted to wait so heartbeat shows clearly.
First scan was around 7 weeks for me. Good to ask the cost upfront, scans add up over pregnancy. Some clinics bundle them. The doctor will tell you when each one is due.
I felt so emotional at my first scan, it was around 7 weeks and hearing that tiny heartbeat made everything real. Yours will likely be in that early window too, the doctor sets it.
Mostly the dating scan is between 6 and 9 weeks. There is also an important one around 11-13 weeks (NT scan). My doctor planned each one, so just follow her checkup chart, dont stress the timing.
