How come you have your OSCAR test so fast? My due around 4th Aug but I only done NT Scan.

Is OScar test different from blood test and NT scan? I blur liao...
Hi Veronica,

OSCAR is done btw 11 - 13 weeks days gestation of the fetus. For me, I went during my 12 wk. It involves Ultrasound measurement of Nuchal Translucency (NT) and sample of the mother's blood. OSCAR test is for MTB of age over 35 but gynae normally would advise those over 30 to consider this test as well (Optional). Did yr Gynae advice you on tis?

Hmm..I had my NT on week 12 and my blood test will be done in week 16. Is this also called OSCAR?

I remember when I had my #1, my NT scan was done in TMC. Now with #2 and different gynae, my gynae did NT scan for me.

Is there a difference? Its been donkey years since my #1, I totally have forgotton the procedure liao..
 
Into 12 Wks 4 days. i did my NT on 7 Feb. took a while as baby position was right, so have to go out and walk around and come back 30 mins later. My gynae did not advise on Oscar test. :(

hi there,
I have a antenatal package at 550 everythg included but i ended up didnt take . THe one that i eventually took up is with tmc and the package is 880 which lotsa of diff cos it pretty much the same as u mention. Lotsa of thing excluded .. i guess u wld be very surprise why i took up the more expensive package. Well lotsa of stories but mainly i am more comforty w that gynae than the cheaper one .. hb say gynae need to help me develop so better take up the one i am more comforty with..
not sure if my advise help.. in the end it you who must be happy...
