you wondered why your provider may offer both an NT scan and NIPT?

They give different kinds of information.

🔹NT ultrasound shows early anatomy and measures the fluid at the back of your baby’s neck.

🔹NIPT uses a blood sample to screen for the chance of certain chromosome conditions.

One does not simply replace the other.

you leave your ultrasound remembering one number but not what it meant?

An NT measurement needs context. Your care team looks at how far along you are, your baby’s size,
and other screening information before explaining the result.

Most NT scans fall within the expected range.

If yours needs a closer look, the measurement still does not give a diagnosis by itself.

Bring your questions. They matter. 💙

📆 One date range worth saving:

🕚 NT scans are usually scheduled from 11 weeks through 13 weeks 6 days.

This timing helps your care team get the measurement while it can be interpreted accurately.

Is your Nuchal Translucency (NT) scan coming up?

This first trimester ultrasound measures a small fluid filled space at the back of your baby’s neck. Most
scans are done over your belly, and our expert sonographers may take several images to get a clear
measurement. 🩺

You do not need to understand every number during the scan. Your care team will review the result with
you and answer your questions.

3️⃣ Explain your results in simple language.
4️⃣ Talk through your options with you.

You can ask questions, take notes, and take time to think.

Save this checklist before your visit and share it with someone preparing for their next appointment.

Did you ever wonder if seeing an MFM specialist meant leaving your OB GYN behind?

You are not alone in asking.

At Pembroke Perinatal Center, your OB GYN remains part of your pregnancy care. The MFM team
adds specialized support when it is helpful, then shares findings and recommendations with your OB
GYN.

It is one connected care team focused on you and your pregnancy.

What was your first question when you were referred to an MFM?

🤰Quick question for expecting moms: did anyone explain the difference between a screening result and
a diagnosis before your NIPT?

NIPT is a screening test. It tells you about chance. It does not give a final diagnosis.

If your results feel confusing, write down your questions and bring them to your next visit.

Your care team can explain what the result means for you and your pregnancy.

Save this for your next exam.

Did your NIPT results leave you with questions? 💬

You are not the only one. NIPT is a screening test, which means it looks at chance. It does not give a
final diagnosis.

A genetic counseling visit gives you time to review the result, understand what it means, and ask every
question on your mind. You do not need to understand every number before you arrive.
