Nuchal Translucency 2.6mm at 12 weeks 1 day - should I be worried?

I had my 12 week scan yesterday, the NT measurement came back as 2.6mm which is on the high end of normal, given that I am only 12 weeks and the test can be performed up until the end of 13 weeks when the baby will be larger.
Should I be concerned about this? I had a miscarriage in January, and this will be my first child - so just trying not to spend all my time worrying whilst I wait for my blood results to come back.
I am 31 and have a Rh negative blood type.

No. This is within the normal range. There's no reason to be concerned at this point.

My baby’s was also 2.6mm at exactly 12 weeks. I was told anything below 3.5mm is considered normal.

Thank you! That's good to hear! I am obviously just worrying myself over nothing :)
