I had my NT today, but unfortunately the baby wasn't co-operating. She had me roll over a number of times, drink apple juice (I hate apple juice since the age of 6), and walk down the hall a few times (which I think she used as an excuse to have a coffee break).
After about 30 minutes of this she said that she was going to stop and reschedule so I have to go back next Wednesday.
I don't really understand why she wanted the baby to move so much. It looked like it was moving, but she said it was just sleeping and lying with its head up and tucked in a fetal position (well of course it is a fetus). You can see I didn't really care for the tech.
Anyways I am glad to get another scan in before the anatomy scan. I will be 13 weeks next Wednesday. Anyways dh was a bit concerned because the baby was only measuring 11w4d when I am 11w6d today. I know this doesn't mean much, but when you have had a severe growth restricted baby before that happened early on it is something you worry about the same thing happening again. Hopefully on next week's scan he/she will be measuring exact for the days.
And I asked her to measure the SCH but she wouldn't saying the scan was only for the NT measurement and I would need my doctor to order a separate scan for the SCH. I don't understand this since it takes 2 seconds to measure something. I pray next time we get a different tech and she is much better.
