FTS test down syndrome test at 12 weeks

Hi.. got my down syndrome test results (combination of blood and ultrasound scan) in the ratio 1:906 and dr told it as intermediate risk. But lower risk is 1:1000 and above. Im really worried about the baby and they mentioned that the nasal bone is absent. I'm really scared.

Ultimately FTS is a risk assessment, it's not a diagnosis. Intermediate risk does not mean baby will have down. Besides, your test was done in week 12, which is on the earlier side. This means maybe baby just needed a bit more time to develop the nasal bone. It could really be all okay.
