    Wink When did you have your morphology scan??

    This is my 4th pregnancy, so I really should know this, but when did everyone have their morphology scan?? I know the recommendation is 18-20 weeks, but thats a pretty big gap. Is there a better time to do it?? 18 weeks or closer to 20 weeks? We really want to find out the sex of our bub so want the ultrasound tech to be able to see the babies bits as easy as possible

    I always try and do it closer to 20 weeks because it is clearer to see the gender of bub

    Last time mine was 20wks 2 days I'm pretty sure! This time around it will be 20wks 5 days I think.....a bit later only because we're away over xmas time and the place is shut over that time anyway!!

    The 20 week scan is sooo exciting!!

    It's recommended 18-22weeks. So I aim for 20.

    20 + 3. The important bits were apparently well identifiable, but we chose not to know.

    19 weeks, I was planning on waiting til 20 weeks but had an anxiety fit and had to get the scan done ASAP! All bits visible and readily identifiable.

    They say the closer to 20 wks the easier it is to see.

    They can tell as early at 15 wks but not as accurately as from 18 wks on.

    This baby i had the scan at 18wks 2 days

    With DS I had it at around 23 weeks, but that was because I was on my honeymoon for the 4 weeks prior

    I have my morph scan tomorrow for this little one, I'm so excited!! I will be exactly 19 weeks.
