Hey there.

I had my Nuchal scan done yesterday and i need to ring up for my results tomorrow but i've just looked in my notes and it says......Nuchal translucency -- 1.80mm.

Not too sure what this means lol. x

no me neither i know that they have to take this measurement plus your age and weight into consideration to decide if you are low or high risk i'm abit worried as i am 34 and overweight but i did lose nearly 2 stone before getting pregnant and as a result this pregnancy i am mw led instead of having to be consultant led. just think i am gonna worry over everthing lol x

 

[eldraW]

Well im 23 and have im slightly overweight, Suppose i will find out tomorrow.. When do u get your results back? x

 

[sarah0202]

i'm not overly sure tbh maybe in about a week will let you know when the results come through x

 

[eldraW]

I didnt think it would take that long lol. I only had mine done yesterday and getting my results tomorrow, But suppose every area is different. Hope your results come back low risk . x

I think they say anything under 3.5 is ok - but obviously they take blood etc into account.

Mine was 2.49 at 13+1
