down syndrome test?

hi, i had my first scan last week at 12+4 , but the baby was liying a certain way and the nurse couldnt see what she was looking for and booked me in for tomorrow.  i was just wondering if any of yous can tell me how it has been . i think she's going to measure the baby's neck and take blood from me? what are the chance of getting the needle? i am so scared:(...

I had the ultrasound and the blood work done. It's only one vial though so it's not bad.
