Hi everyone,

I'm sure this topic has been talked about, but I tried to do a search and didn't come up with anything specific (because it wouldn't use 'NT' in the search ).

We saw the GP about two weeks ago, who said to think abut whether we want to have the NT scan done, and come back in 4 weeks for a check-up and let her know so she can refer us. I quite liked that she told us to think about it, talked to us about some of the things to think about... I'm really impressed actually. She seems very pro-choice and pro-information, whereas I have heard most just give you the referral and tell you to get it done.

We have talked about it, and aren't sure. We know that we wouldn't terminate except for extreme circumstances. My bro has CP, I've worked with with people with disabilities, and I feel very strongly about not terminating on the basis of a disability. We both do, which is good. We have talked about it before, with the AC counsellor.

I'm just not sure what the point of having the scan would be. I guess it would be good to know, just is case, and to prepare.

Just wondering how others made the choice to get the NT scan done... or did you just get it done without thinking much about it?
