OP: I am sorry that you are going through such a difficult time..
Enlarged Nuchal Fold can point to cardiac problems it's true - however sometimes it is enlarged and no reason can be found. I have seen this myself - even a very close friend of mine had this - her little boy is healthy and well.
I hope so much that this is the case for you and your little one. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
Another poster mentioned about the 1:100 and termination. No health professional in their wildest of deliriums would suggest a termnination on such a result. This is a SCREENING TEST. 99 babies out of 100 would be chromosomally sound. You need further support and counselling with regard to this. For example the risk asessment for a woman of 40 is around 1:59.
It must also be said that what to do with results is a very personal and sensitive issue. Some families after much thought and emotion choose to interrupt their pregnancies and others will continue. This is a very very difficult decision that only a couple can decide. Either decision is incredibly difficult and heart wrenching.![]()
