At my 12 nt scan our baby had a slightly thickened nuchal fold from 2mm to 3 ammo they thought it was just the position of the baby though. The nose bone and everything was fine. We did the afp test and it came back negative for spins bifida and 1 in 10,000 chance for chromosomal abnormalities. We're. Very low risk. :)
