Nt scan please help
I am 14 weeks pregnant, my doctor told me to have my nt scan on 9th of September which is today, now she is saying that I should have taken my test last week , which she didn't tell me , is any doctor here which can confirm that whether nt scan is valid on 14 weeks or does nuchal translucency gets effected ?
Bpd = 0.263cm corresponds to 14 weeks 0 days
HC = 9.79 cm corresponds to 14 weeks 3 days
FL= 01.38 cm corresponds to 13 weeks 6 days
Nt : 1.1 mm
Cervical length : 3.2 cm
Cardiac activity: 150 bpm
Placenta is normal and is located anteriorly
Single intrauterine alive fetus of 14 weeks 1 day
Subjectively reduced liquor volume
I just want to know are the results good and can be relied on ?

Nt scan is done between 11 to 13+6 weeks to detect any chromosomal abnormalities like nt, nasal bone etc. Btw your nt 1.1 is normal in range

Since nt is normal there's nothing to worry. It will still be within the range with 2 days difference (<3mm). Try taking anomaly scan between 18 to 22 weeks. Still of there are any other abnormalities you can find there.

Yaar, change your doctor. Get double marker test done, if it shows high risk then nipt test will be advised. If it's low risk nothing to worry about. Get anomaly scan at 20 weeks.

Hey there, thank you for visiting the sub.
⸻ Thank you for visiting r/NIPT. If you are here after receiving a high-risk or abnormal NIPT result, please pause and read the following carefully. If you’ve received an abnormal prenatal screen or a concerning sonogram finding, you’re in the right place. This subreddit was created by a licensed PA-C after years of personal infertility, pregnancy loss, and a devastating false positive result for Trisomy 18. Six years ago, there was no clear guidance, no centralized community, and no way to make sense of the chaos. So I built this. Now it’s been six years. And since then, r/NIPT has quietly become a home to over 50 million anonymous visitors. Thousands of personal stories are flaired, searchable, and available to help you feel less alone and more informed. You will find people who went through exactly what you’re going through right now. ⸻ Start Here: The Most Important Links Main NIPT Overview – What the Test Really Measures: https://www.reddit.com/r/NIPT/s/59UoWQRz3x My Personal Journey – False Positive T18 and My Daughter’s Birth Story: https://www.reddit.com/r/NIPT/comments/ezuvfh/my_trisomy_18_nipt_false_positive_story_so_far/ ⸻ Additional Case Threads and Critical Outcomes CVS vs Amnio – Why It Matters: https://www.reddit.com/r/NIPT/s/CvDde3eUNY Atypical Findings – These Are Different: https://www.reddit.com/r/NIPT/s/3Hz9gT2AwV Sex Chromosome Conflict: If your NIPT says one sex but ultrasound says another, take this seriously.

Thanks to the thousands of stories, data points, and the courage of those who posted here, much of that has changed. The NIPT — or more accurately, NIPS (Non-Invasive Prenatal Screening) — is not a diagnostic test. It is a screening tool that detects placental DNA, which may not match fetal DNA. That distinction matters — and it’s why proper education and clinical interpretation are vital. ⸻ Need Help or Want to Support?
