Jealous!!

I'm from the UK so only get 2 scans the last one at 20 weeks. I'm so jealous of you ladies who get to see your babies every month. And I only get to hear the heartbeat every 3 weeks at my midwife appointments :( haven't seen my baby in 7 weeks and have to wait 13 to see baby again when baby is born. It seems so far away!!

I will only get a total of 3.
Had one at 10 weeks to confirm baby was okay, had one at 20 weeks for the anatomy/gender and will have one between 32-35 to make sure baby is in position.

I'm thinking about paying for a 4d scan at 30 weeks to break up the wait! I can't imagine going overdue, I hope your little one come soon :)

I got so impatient to see my baby again that I paid for two 4d scans!! I hated having to wait so long. I'm overdue now so hopefully baby will be making an appearance soon xxx

I'm from the uk too, it's nothing to do with insurance here as we have the NHS. To have two scans is the norm,  generally only people that have had complications or something wrong in the pregnancy get scanned at every appointment.  It's very rare xx

I only get two scans, it just depends on your insurance. And I am on military insurance, so you would think that I would get a few more, but that's not the case.
