Has anyone had a high risk 12 week “anatomy scan”? Did this give you confidence leading to your 20 week?

Advice

Hey all,

We had our high risk 12 week anatomy scan at mt Sinai a couple months ago, and our 20 week is approaching next week….which we are quite nervous about given previous losses.

Based on what I’m reading online, the 12 week high risk scan provided gives a much higher level of detail than the standard, and rules out a ton of issues that normal pregnancies may only find at the 20 week. It was also done with an MFM, and apparently (?) the tech on these machines is truly world class.

Has anyone else had this scan done? How did the test of your pregnancy go, and did it instill confidence? We haven’t had a scan since then so definitely anxious and in limbo.

Thanks all.
