Hey, i know i gave you some of my thoughts in the other thread but just wanted to give you one more hug. All is crossed for you and i can't wait to hear all the good news on Monday. Ours is at 9.30am - what time is yours? I have to go to work after so will check in when i can. As i said earlier, forget the 13th thingy - instead of looking for reasons to freak out, look at the positives - this is a routine scan and even if they picked up something, usually they are things that can be sorted. Withmy pregnancy with 0li, they told me at this 19week one that i had placenta previa. Nothing wrong with him, just that the placenta was attached low in the uterus and this would mean i may have to have a caesar. In the end it moved up and i got a natural birth. So, although none of us can predict the future, the odds are definately in our favour! Relax and enjoy, thats what i'm going to try and do...
Good luck xxx

Like everyone else has said they check and measure everything. They count fingers and toes, measure bone lengths, head diameter, stomach diameter, look at spine, look at the facial structures, check the chambers of the heart, check the ventricles of the brain, have a look at the kidneys and bladder, liver, stomach, your placenta and the umbilical cord. the list could go on. Basically they check EVERYTHING! Morphology scan generally takes alot longer than the 12 week scan. But do ask loads of questions, especially if you don't understand something or are worried.
Can't wait to hear how it goes. xx
