Dating scan advice

I really want to avoid having a transvaginal scan if possible. It sounds really scary. If I see a gynae at week 7-8, would I be able to avoid it?#firsttimemom

Pretty unlikely to avoid it at week 7.. I had one done at week 9 , but tt was under subsidised route, so I'm not sure if it's the norm. It's not painful, you'll just feel pressure when the doc presses the wand to scan the fetus. If it really scares u, you can call in to enquire first at which week they're do an abdominal ultrasound instead of a transvaginal one.
