At 13 weeks we had an NT test using the ultrasound. This is where they measure the fluid at the back of the babies neck. Depending on the amount of space, they can make an assumption about genetic defects and downs syndrome. Once again we got some more 3D images of Baby B! It's so amazing seeing what exactly is inside your belly! It's really hard to believe! The test came back within normal average, therefore we are not considered at a high risk for genetic defects or down's syndrome.
I will go back at around 18 weeks for another ultrasound where they check for the markers for down's. They will look at all the organs and the body parts during a 45 minute ultrasound. We should also get to know the gender of Baby B!
