NT scan, help please!

[Bubblesbeau]

Hey ladies, I received the letter for my dating scan today and have asked for the NT scan also however on the day of my scan I'll be 13w 6d going by my private scan I had where they measured bubs at 9w 3d, should I phone up and ask to have my appointment brought forward? I didn't even know that you had to have the NT scan before 13w 6d?

Xx

There is no harm in trying to get the appointment put forward?

The scan you are having is your 12 week / dating scan but they will measure NF if you ave opted in for this, as you have!

I believe it does have to be before 13w 6d so you may just make it?

They will still do the scan regardless of whether they can measure NF and you'll have to have the DS test later via a blood test!

xxxxxxxxxx
