Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for writing to us.
Congratulation!
Yes! you can go for scan at the end of this week.
This scan in first trimester is to see the exact week of pregnancy and foetal growth and we'll being.
So three scan are advisable during pregnancy, one in each trimester.
Please do not worry!if you are late by some reasons.
The symptoms of miscarriage are mainly abdominal pain, bleeding per vagina in early months of pregnancy.
No! mild abdominal pain is not a issue.
In my opinion now you should consult a gynaecologist and get your proper examination and investigation done.
I think I have answered your query if you have further questions I will be happy to help you.
Good luck.
Regards
Dr. Richa
