nuchal fold

[nearlymumofone]

I have just come back from my 12 week scan. All was fine which was a real relief but the nuchal measurement was 2.9mm (I'm 12+4). With ds it measured 1.3mm and I'm concerned that this is above normal.

Anyone have any experiences of this or words of wisdom??

Mine was 3.2mm at 13+3. I was worried sick about it, but anything under 3.5mm is within normal range. My combined blood+scan results came back as very low risk (around 1:25000) so try not to worry.

Thank you piggy x

The Dr would have told you if they were concerned, and felt they needed to act on it so do not worry but if you are contact your midwife.

I have had experiance of a high nuchal fold it was 9.20, which is considered high, I saw a consultant immediatly who discussed it with my husband and I. Piggymad is right 2.9mm is fine.
