Short nasal bone
I am pregnant with twins. I have undergone first trimester screening at 11 weeks the report was normal. Even nasal bone of both feotus was visible. Now I have undergone level 2 ultrasound in that one of the feotus shows short nasal bone. I have undergone this at 18 week 5 days. The nasal bone length is 2.7 .
The radiologist advised for amniocentesis but my gynaecologist said no need for further scanning as all other things are normal and level 1 report was also normal. Even I don't have any history of abnormal baby in both family.
As there is risk in testing. What should I do??
Pls tell
