ANY ONE HELP!!!!!!!! So my scan letters have come.. But I have one for a nt scan and a obstetric…

Nuchal translucency scan- 12 week scan

Obstetric scan- 20 week scan 😊

@courtniek98x but both scan are on the same day x

One after the other x

@shaninex97, oh that’s not right, I’d ring and ask if they’ve made an error because they’re 2 different scans hun xx

@courtniek98x what they for hun x

That’s my letter for 12 week scan I got x

@shaninex97, and that’s the 20 week scan letter xx

12 week scan will be to measure baby and give you a correct due date and if you consent will be to test for downs and Edwards syndrome. 20 week is to check measurements and make sure fluid ect is all normal and if you want to they will tell you sex xx

I'll show you mine @courtniek98x

Just don't understand

@courtniek98x The Midwife Was Talking About the testing for downs and everything so maybe it's a separate appointment for that x

@shaninex97, the second one says clinic, have you consented to downs/Edwards screening?xx

@courtniek98x yes x

@shaninex97, that might be what the second letter is for because it does say clinic hun but I would ring just to make sure xx

@courtniek98x isn't that were they check for downs syndrome and things x

@shaninex97, yes hun they’ll take your blood and send it off x

@courtniek98x Maybe. I'll ring up thanks hun x

@courtniek98x The Midwife gave me this to give to the scan people

@shaninex97, yeah you give that in before your scan it just confirms you want downs screening performed xx

@courtniek98x Oh right.. do I give it on the first one or second??

@shaninex97, first before your scan xx

@courtniek98x okay thanks hun X

I never had letters for my first scan as I was an asap scan. But I did have to have my scan and then was taken to another room for my bloods to test for downs xx

@emilyjayne27 oh right x

Sounds like the first one is a scan and the second one is just an appointment with a doctor, probably to discuss what was seen on the scan. Could it be to give bloods? I got one letter for the scan and they took blood straight after. Did they say if there is an elevated chance of the baby having a genetic condition? Where I live they would usually give the appointment with a doctor only to those whose scan was not ok, but they only offer you one after the scan, they don't sent a letter in advance. Must be just to take your blood!

@kate_smith no they didn't say anything like that xx

I think it's just bloods then! Xx

@kate_smith hopefully nothing to worry about xx
