The NT, or nuchal translucency sono was yesterday. They call it that because they're measuring the back of the baby's neck. If it measures greater than 2mm, there's an increased risk for Down Syndrome. It measured 0.91, so very good. They also did some blood work which will check different hormone levels and things like that, again looking to see if there's an increased risk for chromosomal defects. I should get those results in the next week or so.
The sono pictures came out great. The sono machine at the Perinatologist's office is a lot nicer than ours and it shows. Also, she's a lot better sonographer than me. I think the pictures are pretty self-explanatory. We have a DVD as well with clips from the sono, but we haven't figured out if we can put those up here or not. We'll post them later if we can.
