Both times about 7 weeks as I have a family history of twins and it needed to be ruled out and I wasn't quite sure of dates.

With Gina, it was around week 10 as I had ome bleeding. With this one, it was around week 5 as I had abdominal pain (to rule out ectopic) and I was also unsure of dates

17 weeks was my earliest scan, it's pretty hard to get a scan pre-20 weeks in Palmy but I had my dates confused for that one.

I had one at 11 weeks for Nuchal fold test and again at 19 weeks for growth check.
I had the option of a 6 week scan as I had a m/c previously, but I declined it.

First time I had scans at 8 weeks to check dates and 20 weeks. This time they would only let me have the one scan at 20 weeks because the others wern't necissary.

cool thanks for that.
I was wondering cuz it sounded like lotsa mums in the due in sep group had already had scans and I'm not due for another 2 weeks! But it sounds like thats a good thing, as I havn't needed one b4 then.
What did it look like in earlier scans? (like 5-7 weeks)

I had one at about 11 weeks (2 days ago)! I wasn't going to have one until 20 weeks, but the dr couldn't hear the baby's heartbeat with the doppler thingy so he said we could do an ultrasound instead!!! :) It ended up the baby was measuring about 10 weeks only, but he said we wouldn't change the due date.

with kobe i had one at 12 weeks then 18 weeks then again at 36 weeks. With the twins I had one at 10 weeks due to abdominal pain then again a week later to confirm they had stopped developing. With Addison had one at 7 weeks to confirm she was ok, then again at 12 weeks and at 18 weeks and every second week from about 32 weeks i think, maybe earlier.

Its not hard to get early scans in Palmy you just have to know what to say to get them.
Andrew I had 7, 8, 19, 21, 28, 36, 36.4, 36.6, 37.2, 37.5, 38, 38.3, 38,5 and 39 - I had pre eclampsia and was in hospital from 36 weeks with Andrew.
Josh was 7, 21, 23, 36, 37
