First ultrasound

I have a question. I am from Canada and currently 9 weeks. My doctor told me today my first ultrasound would not be until 20 weeks? I guess I just always figured it would be at 12 weeks or definitely sooner.

Is this the standard now? I'm so confused and disappointed just because I'd like to see a glimpse at my baby and see how they are growing. Thanks for the help in advance!!
