Because of various issues, I didn't have my booking appt until last Friday @ 12 + 2. At my appt, the midwife said that if I wanted a nuchal scan, I would need to have it done privately. My dating scan is tomorrow. According to my own dates of my last period, I would only have this week to have the scan, otherwise it's too late.
I will have a quadruple test @ 16 weeks. The midwife said there's no difference in accuracy between this test and the combined nuchal scan & blood test. However, this info conflicts with other info I've read/heard. So, confused as to whether to pay for the scan or not.
I'm 33 and the scan is £190.
Any advice would be much appreciated.
