I had a TFMR last year due to a high nuchal fold being 4mm. I had CVS which picked up a chromosomal issue being a duplication of the long arm of chromosome 2.

I am now pregnant again, had my 12 week scan, nuchal fold is 3mm so normal but higher end. Im 38 and my initial screening came back as 1/93 for T21.

Due to last time I qualify for the CVS, I am speaking to the genetics team but I really dont know what to do. I think if there was any serious abnormalities I wouldn't continue. I would have to travel for the cvs this time which is another issue.

I know the nipt doesn't detect any further genetic conditions like last time so will conform for T21 but she did say my age automatically put me at 1/185 before any bloods.

Im terrible at deciding what to do, i have no issues with the actual CVS procedure itself but it invasive with a small risk.

Just unsure if I should take the opportunity being given to me or just proceed with nipt?
