No worries: The nuchal transulcency is measured to assess for the possibility of Down's syndrome or other chromosomal defects.Generally if measurement is greater than 3-4mm one of these defects is suspected.At 0.9 I'd say your baby has a low probability of this.CRLis right around where it should be for 12 weeks too.Sometimes the estimated gestational age based on size is slightly off,don't worry about this.
