Question
Hello doctor,
My wife is 21 weeks pregnant and had a 4D ultrasound, the doctor said she did not observe the length of the nasal bones. Doctor let me ask the 21st week fetus, why can't the length of the nose bone be found? Is there a time when the baby is lying in the wrong position, so the length of the nose bone cannot be observed, doctor?
Looking forward to your advice, thank you doctor.
