Hi - just got back from my scan and WOW hasn't it changed since the 6 week scan. He gave us 4 pictures - showing limbs, face and ears!! Everything seems fine and the heart was beating away merrily. The nuchal fold was all okay, so hopefully no need for an Amnio (I am just 35). Billy blob is approx 3.5inches long and had his legs crossed so not giving anything away to us!!
How are all the other 12 weekers? Hope you are all well, can't believe we are nearly out of the 1st trimester. Still keeping quiet at work, will try and leave it a few more weeks before I spill the beans.
Good luck and best wishes to everyone,
Sammie "n" Billy Blob

I bet you are relieved it is all ok. I remember not sleeping for days before my Nuchal scan. What were your stats? I am 35 and mine went from 1 in 222 to 1 in 734. After the 20 week scan if it is all ok you then double that figure.
It is so wonderful to see how much your baby has grown in a relatively short time. Would you have wanted to find out what sex Billy blob really is? We have our 20 week scan (23 in our hospital) in a few weeks and we really don't want to know but it would make buying clothes and decorating the nursery a lot more easy.
Great news and what a relief - i am 13wks today and am 37 - 38 this year and flapped about my nuchal especially with my history and what happened last time - mine went from 1:160 to 1:1250 for one and 1:1110 for the other so phew.
Keep safe
Love
