NT scan today

We had our NT scan today. Everything looked good, but fluid was 2.1, w risk at 1/75. We are doing the Verifi test. Anyone else similar? I'm 35, and 11w3d.

DH and I have decided not to worry and build up anxiety until we get results. We are using the "cross that bridge when we come to it" mentality, or I will be a basket case.

    I am 38 and 13w6d. I had the MaterniT21 test at 11w5d. It was just a simple blood test, they took four or five vials of blood. It took 8 business days to get the results. Try not to worry...I know that's easier said than done, though!

    Sorry, should have been more clear. We had screening and blood draw today. I guess I'm just anxious about results.

    Just try to remember these are just screenings for risk and so many people come back with a risk but everything turns out to be fine. I see far more stories with happy endings than those where the baby actually had a defect. Hope this helps keep things in perspective. Definitely stay positive and don't let your mind run away with the what ifs. I screened positive for Downs but my level 2 ultrasound showed a healthy beautiful baby. Your chances are still good that everything is fine.
