Nuchal fold thickening

Nikki

At my anatomy scan they noticed the skin on the back of the neck was thicker than normal (nuchal fold thickening) Which is a sign of Down syndrome. I’m currently waiting for my blood test to come back to find out for sure. Curious if anyone has gone through this and what happened.

It happened to my friend and today she has a very healthy baby girl, try not to stress too much (easier said than done, I know) good luck on your results!

This is why I had genetic testing done early. Less worry. My guess is it will be ok tho

Were they concerned about it at your NT scan?

I didn’t have that done. They never mentioned it.
