PAL Spring 2011 babies - Welcome Mason, Iris, Lily, Isaac, Luca & Dominic !!!!

Hi girls,

Deb I need you!!! I'm getting very nervous about the NT scan and especially as it will be the first time I've been back to that department since my first mmc diagnosis - Deb goes to same hospital so can you give me an overview of what will happen? Just so I'm prepared that's all. Do they take your bloods first or is it straight into the scan?

Thanks Deb!

Hope everyone else is well! I'm still feeling very nauseous! Trying to eat a chicken burger now!

Xxx
 
Happy to help .... i had the scan done first, in the dukeries bit. Sat round waiting, went in, scan woman explained what they were doing etc. Scan performed .. cue tears of joy :)
Got told official due date and was told to go to desk and book 20 week scan. Booked 20 week scan.

Then sent round to Pregnancy day care for bloods. Handed woman my notes .. got weighed (boo) then she took the blood... only 1 little pot :) She said the results would take about 2 weeks and my midwife would let me know if there was a problem.
As it turned out, my results were with my midwife on the Wednesday (had scan Fri) and all is good :)

Don't think i missed anything .... oh yeah £3 per scan pic, you need tokens for the meter in waiting room :)
 
Thanks Hun that's really helped! Feel more prepared now! Xxx
 
Sigh
docs didn't go well- not pregnant and bloods getting sent away to test for diabeties etc and if neg il be scanned etc for polysystoc ovaries etc.

Good luck ladies :kiss:
 
Sorry to hear thar sweetie. Back here soon, y'hear? :kiss:

Neen and Deb that's interesting. Down here they do bloods first... Unless you're on the verge of a full blown panic attack when you arrive and they check yer history on the system and realise they'd best fire up the scanner asap :blush:

Had a manic couple of days at work girls, sorry to have been absent. Will update tmrw before MW. Hope you're all well xxx
 
So sorry Bittersweet. Hopefully we'll see you around these boards very soon. Fingers crossed.
 
Sorry Bittersweet! I hope the blood work and tests come back ok. hugs.
