DP and I chose to have the NT scan because we wanted to see bubs and hear the heartbeat but also because this is our first pregnancy and we wanted to do all the "right" things - I am not saying that having it is the right thing but we both felt pressure to have the test... pressure from society, family etc. In the end it was our choice and we did decide to have the test... we both acknowledge that we chose it.

At the time of the scan (11th March) we weren't sure what we would do if we had a high risk - we had talked about it but had no real conclusions even on the day of the scan. We are considered low risk - so we will likely never know what we would have done if the results were different.

As I said this is our first bub and we have thought about whether we would have the test for any subsequent pregnancies but am not sure and we both agree we will cross that bridge if we get to it.
