Hi norfen,
I am the same as you; PINK team! and... low-lying placenta when I did my scan in week 13. Now I am in week 19 and my gynae still told me my placenta is lying on the lower side during my last visit last week. My gynae only advised me not to carry heavy things, yes.... no intercourse... and to do things gently and slowly. He also mentioned and reassured me that it is normal, just have to be careful not to over exert it further. He didn't mention anything about experiencing bleeding at 20 weeks though. I am just upset that due to the low-lying placenta, I might not be able to give birth naturally...

There should be a package for you on these. My gynae provided me a scan package (all paid for and I do not need to pay for any scans done). I would reckon the package for the scans will cost much cheaper than having to pay the scans individually.
Just came back from detailed scan today.. the good news is baby is growing well with 'no obvious signs of fetal anomaly'.
However, I've got a high reading for the Doppler Uterine Artery (left and right) test. Anyone has this problem too? Gynae explained that in severe cases it may restrict fetal growth as the blood flow to the uterus is slow. Then again he gave me a choice if I wanted to medicate as it is not so serious for my case since there are no notches (means no blockage). After some discussion, he prescribed me Aspirin.
Still worried

I did my detailed scan last wed @ TMC Lvl 4. Appt was 1030, I only go into the room at 1210?? Waited damn long, damn pek chek.. somemore i was alone coz hubby working. Alot of ppl there also waited super long and alot of unhappy mummies questioning the counter..
The scan takes abt 20mins.. My sonographer just scan and didnt talk to me much lol.. she was guiding this junior nurse on how to enter the readings into the report. Only after 10mins, she told me this is bb's arms, feet, fingers, spine, brain, heart, and other organs.. Results are immediate.

20 weeks scan
Just did my scan at tmc lvl 4 this afternoon. Waited for slightly under than an hour. Felt v lucky that my sonographer is super nice and friendly. She greeted me & hubby wif a smile when we entered, and talked to us throughout the entire session. She explained everything she was doing, wat she is looking out for, that the measurements are normal, and kept reassuring us that baby is growing well. Everything is done in about 10-15 mins. After that, she printed the report and explained the results to us line by line. Hubby & I really enjoyed the session. We didnt hv to pay again bcos we had alrdy paid for this scan during the oscar test on week 13. It was a dual scan & blood test package, about $400+ after FBI discount. Hope all mummies (& daddies) who are going for the scan will hv a pleasant experience like mine. Cheerios!

I read that you can do the FA scan anytime from week 18 to week 22, so I had to schedule mine on my 21st week coz my hubby got to go for reservist on my 20th week.. I thot they go by appointment timing though... did you managed to get it done early, if you have already gone for it?Thanks for ur reply. If u postpone then it wont be on ur 20th week already?
