Nuchal Ultrasound: A normal amount of fluid in the back of the neck during ultrasound means it is very unlikely your baby has Down syndrome or another genetic disorder. A normal measurement at 11 weeks is up to 0.20 cm, a normal measurement at 13 weeks, 6 days is up to 0.28cm. Your measurement of 0.255 at 12 weeks appears to be in the normal range.
