How far along for Morphology scan?

[Ozstar]

I am booked in to have my morphology scan at the end of the month, I will be 21 weeks. When I had DS I was told it had to be done between 18-20 weeks? I know that one of the scans (Nuchal or Morphology) needs to be done at a certain time. Is 21 weeks ok??

Mine was done at 20 weeks but my OB would have been happier at 19 weeks. The scan clinic pushed me to 20 weeks

I had the scan done at 20 weeks, but DS was in an awkward possy & very stubborn, so I had to book in again for a few things.
I was between 22 & 23 weeks when the second one was done.
18 - 20 weeks is preferable, but I think before 22 weeks is recommended

my Ob actually asked me to push mine back to almost 21 weeks - we have family history of a congenital heart defect and he wanted the baby to be that little big bigger to check this out - ideal timing is anywhere from 18-22 weeks

Oz, I just had mine done at 21+2 weeks, from what I could gather they prefer it to be done before 22 weeks.

Thanks so much for the input.

oh so cool OZ! i can't believe you are at the 'magic' peek-a-boo stage already!! mwahh!

with Leila we had it done at 19+4. we were told ideal between 19-21 weeks but they do them often at around the 22 week mark. so who knows?! LOL!
