Hi! I would like to seek some advice.

Hi mommies. I would like to seek some advice on whether should i go and check ultrasound early or should i wait. I am 8 weeks pregnant (according to my lmp) but im only scheduled to visit the doctor in polyclinic on 25th April which will probably be in my 10 weeks to ask for referral to hospital. I had 2 miscarriages last year. Both times i was scheduled early for my ultrasound only to found out they couldnt detect any heartbeat yet And at week 6 i started bleeding and eventually miscarried (for both) Because they couldnt scan through my tummy, they have to go through scanning from below. My husband said that it could trigger the bleeding thats why we thought of waiting for abit to get scan. #adviceplease #firsttimemom

two of my friends and I have all gotten vaginal scans, and all good so far. miscarriages rarely happen as a result of such physical activities, and are more related to genetic issues. stay strong mama, say your affirmations, you'll be okay 💪 scans are your choice, if you choose to delay also not a big deal as long as ur not uncomfortable or in pain. I'm not a doc but please check and see what feels right. all over the world people dont even get scans till much later so go with your gut too.
