Hi all,
Before anyone tells me not to over analyse my scan pics I know but i have a lot of anxieties due to previous MC, so i cant help it haha

I had my results low risk of downs but googling I have come across posts saying that aside if your baby has no nasal bone that can mean results are inaccurate? I dont know if the nasal thing was checked at12 wks scan which was actually done at 13 wks, no mention of it... on 13 wk scan pic attached im sure i can see one but on 17 week one attached I cant, any ideas? Could baby just be at a funny angle.. I am yet to have 20 wk scan

I try to stay away from forums and just go with it but I cant help it

Didn’t you post about this yesterday? If it wasn’t mentioned by the sonographer then I wouldn’t worry. The baby’s face will be looked at in detail at your 20 week scan, you’re going to drive yourself mad by second guessing everything.

I think this is the 3rd same post with same pictures since yesterday...
I am not a trained sonographer or obstetric professional or midwife and i doubt anyone here will comment on your scan when it comes to risks of abnormalities... screening is not based on one or two pictures for a reason!
As it has been said in your previous posts, better to trust professionals, you should try to talk to your midwife about this anxiety and arrange for a new scan if you absolutely don't trust the screening you had.
Google is your worst enemy. Having had a loss myself i completely understand where the anxiety comes from, but nobody here will be able to answer your question...
