Hi, I posted on here about two weeks ago. I had a nt result of 5mm at my 10 week scan. I went for a follow up scan at 13+4 and got a reading of 3.4mm which I was told was just under the normal limit of 3.5mm.
I thought this was still quite high but the specialist didnt want to see me.
The sonographer said the baby had a strong heartbeat and seemed to be developing normally, which put me at ease a little.
I had a phone call yesterday from the hospital with my combined results. I got 1 in 75 chance of downs, which is better than I expected. She didnt give exact blood results but did say one was spot on and the other was .5 below normal.
I feel quite positve about these results even though I know alot of women would be terrified. Is this just me kidding myself ?
We've discussed having an amino but the risks of miscarriage are the same percentage risk as my baby having downs so we've chosen to wait and see how the20 week scan goes.
Has anyone had similar experiences?
