ammended- What would you do??

this is a really silly question- but I am actually debating this.
You all know my fears re: the baby and how I get another ultrasound- my dr. wanted me to wait until i hit 10 weeks before scheduling it.

Do I get it on Monday 11/17- when I am 10 weeks 2 days, the earliest date I can schedule, for peace of mind that the heartbeat is ok
or... Do I get it a little later- like Friday at 10 weeks 6 days or the following monday, 11 weeks 2 days- just because the later i see things, the closer I am to the 2nd trimester, hopefully the better I feel about the pregnancy- plus we want to tell DH's family on thanksgiving

i should also mention- i have a script for the NT scan= which is an ultrasound that happens between 11 - 13 weeks 6 days, so i have 2 u/s coming up. i don't know if that will make a diff. in your opinion

i know it is only a matter of days- and this is a stupid internal debate.. but seeing a healthy baby at just 10 weeks versus 11 weeks would make a difference mentally- but so would the long wait LOL.

so wwyd?

It's a hard question. I would want it early because I would be anxious to see but at the same time having closer to the 2nd tri is going to give you a better u/s. I would choose the later date. At 11 weeks you should be able to view much more vs 10 weeks and that way you would be able to tell DH's family on Thanksgiving Day. GL.

I think the closer to the 11 weeks the better - easier said than done though. GL!

Honestly, I know how freaked and nervous you are. I would go earlier for peace of mind. GL with your decision.
