im reading a lot of posts that say they go for their scan and then they have to go see their dr for the results. is that true?? at my 12 week they told me everything was good with remaining baby. i had my routine 16 week midwife appt and they never said anything about the scan. if i have to see my midwife or dr for results whether everything is normal or not id be waiting another 6 weeks... what actually happens with the scans??
