    I believe the 1st poster. i comprehend you comprehend what the attempt is - and you in all hazard won't like my reaction the two - yet at 14 weeks the toddler's lymph device develops which drains away the fluid that's measured in the process the NT attempt. It won't be able to be performed after 14 weeks! as nicely, it could purely be performed by potential of a experienced practitioner and takes approximately 30 minutes to end accurately - many times the test is scheduled particularly at 12-13 weeks. It would not make experience why they might degree at 20 weeks. Ask for an evidence in the past you do any volatile invasive tests!
