What Does This NT Scan Report Indicate?
Hello, I can t stop stressing. I am 15 weeks + 5 days pregnant and only just received my NT scan results from when I was 12 weeks + 2 days. I m 25 years old and this will be my second child. The baby s NT measurement was good at 1.7mm. My combined age, NT & maternal serum proteins put me at a low risk of 1:1013. Everything about the baby looked fine EXCEPT they have put down absent nasal bone . I can t stop stressing about this as on the Internet it says only 1-3% of normal babies have absent nasal bone at this gestation :(. I can t be excited for my pregnancy anymore while I feel like this. Can anyone help.
