Hi Kristen,
Hooray for your big 12-week scan--it's a fun one, b/c they tend to spend a good bit of time trying to get that NT measurement just right, and in the mean time, you can ooh and aah every time you see fingers and toes :)
It is always easier to empty a bladder than fill one.. :) I didn't do an NT u/s, but for my others, they had me go ahead and go pee.
Most techs will ask you if you want to know. They aren't going to just blurt it out. (At least, not a good one...) It was one of the first questions they asked at my 20 week u/s. BUT.. that said, NT is a little early to know for sure-- it would just be a guess at this point.
Good luck and let us know!!

They had me empty my bladder before my NT scan.
Hi Kristen-
It's abdominal. No full bladder needed. I had mine today- they are just so cool- we even saw T's little fist by her mouth- sucking her thumb!!
Can't wait to hear your news!
Hey Kristen!
I have had the same question since I made my NT appointment!
Wow, I must just have gone to a sadistic U/S center!!!
