A. if you are nt scan is normal and also the trisomy result is normal then actually there was no need to go for nipt test. if you have done its okay but there is no problem and concerning about the intra cardiac fetal issue it gets hissolved in many of the cases as the baby grows

A. Hello there ma’am please do not worry about it too much. But it is really very difficult to say anything without proper examination. It is advisable to get yourself evaluated by a doctor and follow doctors advise properly. You can also book online doctor’s appointment on FirstCry where the doctor can help you and guide you properly. Thanks and take care
