I just can't stop being negative and I really don't want to be!

I had a scan last week at 11+1 and everything was perfect but just a bit too small to get a measurement for the nuchal translucency, so I'm booked to go back on Monday when I will be 12+5 to do all the measurements etc.

What are the chances of anything going wrong at this point? Feel free to tell me to shut up and stop being stupid!

Happy Friday to you all!xxxxxx
 
The chances of things being wrong if the baby was fine at 11 weeks are low. The scans are plus or minus five days on accuracy anyway, and 11+1 is the very earliest they can do NT measurement. You were probably just a day or so too early. Next time it will be fine, and they will be able to get all the measurements they need.
At 11 weeks if there was something they could see to worry about, they would tell you about it.
 
Your just being a good mum! Dont worry your so close to the 12 week stage I really cant see anything going wrong!

Congrats :)
 
same thing happened to me went thinkin i was 11wks 6days got put to 11wk had to go bak wen was 12wks 2day everything was perfect still
 
Dont worry! I know its hard not to, but honestly the risk of miscarriage is overstated. Once you miss your period your overall risk of miscarriage is about 15% for a healthy young woman. I dont know if thats what you are, but worst case 25% overall - meaning 1. 75% or more women have healthy babies without problems, and that 2. The risk of something happening at 12 weeks when baby is perfectly fine at 11 is extremely extremely extremely low. Infinitessimally small!!

I dont want to belittle your concerns, but just want you to be reassured.
 
Same thing happened to me! Baby was just a lil too small to get the measurements so we went back this past Wed when I was 12 weeks 6 days. Everything was great with baby!!!
