I know that it only works when combined with the blood test and age etc, but what was the NT fluid reading for those of you who had the test done?

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

The NT measurement is relevant as part of the combined test calculation for Downs, Edward’s and Patau’s syndrome. However, it can also be a clue to other issues, such as a structural heart issue. If the measurement is 3.5mm or more it warrants discussion with a specialist clinician (midwife or doctor) to explain the possibilities and to discuss whether you want any additional investigations/tests.
A measurement below 3.5mm at first trimester scan is considered “normal”
Does that help?
