Beta, these things are checked by modern medical scans and tests done by the doctor. Don't worry about it too much, just eat well, rest, and follow your doctor's advice.
It is identified through the NT ultrasound scan and blood tests like the Double Marker or NIPT. Your doctor will routinely prescribe these during your 11th to 13th week.
I remember going through all these anxiety-inducing tests while feeling terribly sick. These are standard blood tests and scans done in the first trimester, your doctor will explain them.
There are specific screening tests like the NT scan and double marker test done between 11-14 weeks. Please follow up regularly with your doctor so you don't miss these timelines.
Stay positive and take care of your health. The doctors will suggest the necessary scans like NT scan at the right time, so don't stress yourself with worry.
