Anomaly scans/worry

[SheWillBeLoved]

Has anyone else been absolutely terrified to go to their 20 week scan?

I refused the Nuchal scan as I thought "What difference will it really make? None.", but now I feel so guilty. What if there turns out to be something horribly wrong that hasn't been picked up because I didn't want to worry any more than I already was

I know it's too late for ' what ifs ' now, but I just wanted to see if anyone else has been frankly, shit scared, of their baby having such a detailed scan? So far everyone has just said "Oh you must be so excited you'll be able to see everything!".... that's what i'm scared of! I feel like a right weirdo.

I think its natural to be worried that everything is ok. I'm a bit more worried this time than the other two, but have no reason to be. I'm sure we'll both be fine

i was the same but refused bany "extra|" testing as i would never have "acted" if they some anything anyways so pointless having the tests imo.
Its normal to worry, anything major would be picked up at 20 weeks anyways so dont feel bad about refusing tests. good luck

I'm also refusing the triple test which is next week- like Lisa says, anything major will be picked up at the scan (which is what you're worried about I know).
