What Problem Can Happen If The Baby Will Have A Wider Nasal Bridge?

Hi, I m 21 weeks pregnant with my second baby. On the ultrasound everything was fine except the doctor is worried her nasal bridge is a little wider than she d like to see. I m get a higher ultrasound with a specialist soon. What are they looking for and what problems can this bring? All my blood work has come back fine as well.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.

I have reviewed your query and my advice is not to worry. It's a finding which can be normally found in any fetus. We cannot suggest you any definite condition or syndrome based on single finding or wide nasal bridge.

Hopefully it will be of help. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care.

Regards,
Dr. Archana Verma
