Hi,

It is really great that you had a triple test and NT test and all came negative.
A short or stout femur does not indicate downs. Don't worry and wait for the next scan.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. AJEET SINGH, General & Family Physician
