After several losses, I'm 9w4d and this is the farthest I've gotten in any pregnancy. I had a complication at week 6 (subchorionic hematoma) that caused a LOT of bleeding.
My fertility clinic did scans week 6 and 7 and everything is measuring properly and heart rate looks good but because of the complication I have an elevated risk of miscarriage.
I've been discharged and am waiting for my first appointment at the midwife clinic. I was under the understanding that the next scan would happen at 12 weeks and I feel capable of waiting that long, but I just looked at the BC Health website and it says 18-24 weeks is the next scan 😭 is this right!? How can I be expected to wait this long without reassurance things are progressing?
I've seen some women post about getting "reassurance scans" but I wonder if that's an American thing?? Does anyone know?
