Hi, so my gynae asked if i want to do detailed scan to detect baby heart formation, amniotic fluid etc..
I asked a friend and she said she didnt have it during her pregnancy last year. Is it neccessary?

normally people dont do it i guess.

unless u have extra money to spare.

If maternal age not more than 34 and previous child is ok I don’t think it is necessary

First child and 38 years old.

No wonder the gynea offered the option.

Scan la

I am mostly worried about amniotic fluid because I haven't been able to keep down liquid. Any my tummy is still rather flat, many friends commented I didn't look pregnant at all.

I am week 20 now, next appt will be Week 23. Will it be too late? According to brochure it's to be done week 18 - 20. Dr suggested like one month ago but she was in a rush and didn't seem to emphasize it, and I forgot after all the excitement about passing NICC test.

Lol.
Amniotic fluid is the least of your worry.

But since already pass nicc scan then no real need for detail scan

Thanks for the feedback. I would skip this scan then cause I don't want to stress about it before baby arrive.
