How far along will you be at your NT scan?

I know they are generally between 11-14 weeks.  Is there an optimal time to do them, like say 12 weeks?  I've read that once you get to 13 weeks +, they are less reliable.

I'll be going on Monday and I'll be 12 weeks 2 days.  Not sure if there is an optimal time or not, but this is when my doctor scheduled it for.

No idea when optimal is, but my doctor scheduled me for 12 week, 1 day.

My scan is on April 16th and I will be 11w5d.  My doctor said that they like to do them around 12wks.

I've heard that 11 weeks is  the best time to do it because it is the most translucent then.  I have mine this week on Thursday, so I'll be 11 weeks and 3 days.

I didn't originally plan to have it done but doctor saw my ultrasound from 9 weeks and wanted to do the NT scan just in case.

I think any time under 14 weeks is okay. We went at 13 1/2 which I liked because we found out the sex.

I had mine today at 12 weeks 5 days.  I think if it falls within the timeframe, it should be acurrate.

You have to get them when you are between 11 weeks and 13 weeks, 6 days.  Before that, the baby isn't formed enough, and after that, the fluid in the nuchak fold has usually been absorbed.
