NT 4.9mm
I’m 12 weeks 3 days pregnant and today was our scan, we had 2 previous private scans, due to a previous miscarriage, nothing was picked up, but they are very quick, nhs was much more in depth. Baby didn’t play ball very well, but they suspect NT is 4.9mm which worried me a little, then I had a phone call with an urgent referral to a London hospital with in 5 days.
It was a bit of information overload, and I got a bit emotional hearing the possibilities.
Hopefully I will hear soon, but please could any one tell me if they had similar and the out comes good and bad.
I am 41 so this goes against me.

My DS's was 6mm, but they also had other measurements, thigh and nose, possibly something else, which offset the NT. I was also 41 at the time.

How is the baby health wise? X scan today was reassuring, baby still strong and placenta intact x

Well that's one bit of good news anyway. The bleeding must have worried you, naturally.

I hope the rest of the tests come back with equally good news, @Jude0806

I'm keeping you and your baby in my prayers.

This was 24 years ago, I was referred to Kings at the time, but he is a strapping 6 foot plus now.
