Any advice on this...

where i live we only get a 12 week scan..if anyone has read my post "the dad" they would know the situation about him finding out now..6 months down the line..im pregnant.. he said he wanted to come to scan with me but obviously ive already had mines done..the thing is i don't want one of those 3d scans (as much as i think there amazin) i dont want to know the sex...do u think i would be allowed another normal scan in my situation ?

not sure hun, you'd need to speak to the midwife.... seems odd that they only do one scan at 12 weeks though.. do they not do the 20 week anomaly scan there?

Nope..we only get another scan if there is something wrong with the growing etc..

Just that he had mentioned he would av liked to go..and was wondering if i was allowed another one for that reason..

yep its pretty shit dont know if they would give me another one though..not a fancy 3d on or nout just the normal black n white one x

I doubt they would give you another scan for that reason along but im just guessing

But you can get a 3D/4D scan without knowing the sex. As long as you tell the sonographer before hand it should be ok

Tell your sonographer you don't want to know...You can't see a thing(atleast I couldn't).If not,tlak to your midwife about your situation...
It's good he want to come though,my babys dad was with me today on my scan and he loved it...xxx

I read through the NHS website all women are offered a mid-trimester scan between 18-20 weeks..
Bit unfair they don't allow it up here!?

For the reason you want one i dont think they would give it to you, if you can afford to why dont you book a private scan not a 3d one just a normal check up it would be cheaper than a 3d scan and dad would get to see his baby?... just an idea! xx

How much is it for a private scan any idea?

Apart from the fact i dont want one of those fancy 3d scans incase i do see a willy or not lol..but i can't afford £100 on a scan either

any clue on how much the normal ones are then?
