I'm Currently Feeling: | I can't believe they only do one. I was wondering why my Doc. never mentioned booking an U/S even thought it is like a 6-8 week wait.  . I was hoping to get one soon. | | | | Status: Online

But is it free? We pay a monthly premium for our healthcare. What's isn't free anymore. LOL |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Our private scans cost $130, and I think medicare rebate like $50 of it. But you need a docs referral for that. TBH, I don't know how many scans are given here... |

For my birthday, I want the two visit package and told my hubby that  He's just as bad to see the scan so I am sure I will get what I ask. ROFL |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Wow, I want a 4d scan of my baby, my cousin had to have one so I think i'll ask how much. And it's so much more accurate to find out the gender! Do you know when you can get one? |

Do you know when you can get one? | I have heard that the best time is around 25 weeks as the baby has gained more fat and looks more like a baby  This is what I've heard from posters on here who have experienced it.
However, the one I am going to does say anytime after 20 weeks
I believe Anne-Marie is getting hers done earlier. You might want to ask her. |
