What is the duration of pregnancy? NIPT would have been a good tool to assess and confirm the risk. Amniocentesis is confirmatory. Most of your tests show low risk. Based on the duration of pregnancy a call needs to be taken.
Next Steps
Best would be to meet your gynecologist and discuss in detail as there would be lot of scenarios in this case of yours
