bad NT u/s
26

Average NT was 3.1, one of the measurements was 3.6 (not 3.8 as I thought, but still). I could tell there was too much fluid there as soon as I saw the baby on the screen. Baby didn't move much, didn't want to play.


I got a quick appt with a genetics counsellor who is trying to get me a CVS for next week, but it is probably too late. I will likely have to wait until 15 weeks to get the amnio, then 2-3 weeks after that for results. It's going to be a very very long couple of months and anything could happen in the meantime.


So it doesn't look good. I was hoping for more reassurance from the counsellor but didn't get any.


So that's that.

I know what you are going through. My sequntial screening (blood work after the NT scan) came back abnormal. I know that it's impossible to sit still and wait for the CVS/Amnio and then results. You will be in my prayers. Alot of times I guess these things are flukes. I wish I would have never done the test...so nerve wracking isn't it? KUP...

I will tell you my story with Owen.


I didn't have the nt scan with him.


But at my 20 wk u/s his nuchal fold measured thick sometimes and sometimes right on.
