I agree with the post above. I know a few women who were told their baby would have Downs and they were all fine at birth. Did you have the blood work done that goes with that ultrasound?  The early risk screening?

Those measurements are tricky and most of the time the baby is fine. I'm sure the docs will monitor that. Don't be too alarmed. That test can be extremely subjective and has a lot of false positives.
