High NT value 3.2mm
Today we went for councelling with feto medical doctor. Doctor said NT value is very high 3.1mm, high chance of tracing out abnormalities in future tests. Even though we go for Amnio, doctor says only down syndrome is ruled out but there is other abnormal chances to be diagnosed clearly in all other test as the NT value is high. We understood that the possibility of healthy baby is low and having low confidence to proceed further.
Please guide us, what is the positive out come of healthy baby, if 100 pregnant women going forward with 3.2mm NT value having high risk down syndrome, how many pregnant women can deliver healthy baby as per current statistics.
Help out in understand the risk to proceed further and genuinely advice to proceed forward or terminate. We are ready for both the decision and need some external support for decision making, please guide.
