NT Measurement worries

Hi

I'm in another state of panic, the worried waiting never ever ends for us. We are finally pregnant after 3+ years of TTC, miscarriage, surgeries, endo, PCO, male factors, failed IVF, I'm so exhausted physically and emotionally, but we are now 13 weeks pregnant. We had our first trimester scan yesterday and our NT level seems to me to be above average it was 2.5, (its measured to try and predict the risk of baby chromosomal problems such as down syndrome or heart problems). The scanographer said I was still low risk, I believe the cut off is 3.5, but there's lots online about the normal being below 2. I have to wait 2 more days for the results of the blood test that helps to clarify whether the risk is high or not. I can't hardly handle this latest worry, I just want a break from waiting for news, and worrying about the worst. I was getting pretty good at keeping my mind of this and on work, but as a business owner we've had to close up for the C.Virus so I'm suddenly a bit lost. Have to stay away from people for 12 weeks!!! I'm not in a good way. Any advice or connection with others would be so appreciated.

Thank you :)
