ANY ONE HELP!!!!!!!! So my scan letters have come.. But I have one for a nt scan and a obstetric scan. Why do I have 2…

@kate_smith hopefully nothing to worry about xx

I think it's just bloods then! Xx

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

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!

@emilyjayne27 oh right 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

@courtniek98x okay thanks hun X

@shaninex97, first before your scan xx

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Just don't understand

I'll show you mine @courtniek98x

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

@courtniek98x what they for hun 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

One after the other x

@courtniek98x but both scan are on the same day x

Nuchal translucency scan- 12 week scan

Obstetric scan- 20 week scan 😊
