Well she mentioned the nub theory but said it's too risky to give a guess because she has seen nubs grow and change LOL!

How many weeks did bub measure Jark?

Suregena - Id be pushing for a 12week scan....just because you had an earlier one, doesn't negate your right to a NT scan, your earlier one was to make sure your baby is ok, this one if to check for Downs, so they can't not give you one just because you had an earlier viability scan.

I think it will give you peace of mind especially if you are still getting spotting...

I'd approach it one of 2 ways..
- Push for the scan for the NT reasons, you want this test done becuase you and hubby need to know about any potential chromosomal issues, dont mention the spotting becuase they they might think you only want the scan to see the baby, not for the NT purposes and they might say no. Say that the stress levels of NOT having the NT check done exceed the stress levels of getting a high risk result, and that you want to be prepared.
- Say that the you are getting lots of cramping, lots of spotting and are concerned, lay it on if you want, but if you take that approach they might dig their heels in and so no...

I reckon you go with the first approach and push for a NT for the purpose of the NT and then they really cant refuse.

I personally think its a very important test, and if i had absolutely NO worries about miscarriage, and absolutely NO inclination to get any gender clues, I would STILL be getting an NT scan for its very specific purpose..

Good luck - let us know how you go!
