Worry/Anxiety between scans

KX

Ladies how are you managing it, any tips for me?

I’ve had the following scans

- 7 week. Fertility clinic to confirm pregnancy

- 9 week. Private scan. Me flapping.

- 10 week. Emergency scan due to bleeding.

- 12 week. Private. 2 weeks vacation so wanted to check on baby before we went away.

- 14 week. Dating scan. (This should have been the 12 week scan but appointment came through for while I was away)

Next one now isn’t until week 20 I don’t think. And with the symptoms now finally starting to subside I have all sorts of worries creeping in.

I don’t really want to be doing private scans every other week if I can avoid it as I should be saving that money aside for the little one.

Also I have been advised against buying a Doppler by my midwife due to there being multiple pulses, apparently placenta and even the umbilical cord also give off a pulse which is detectable by a Doppler.
