Scared

Hi all, I have had the toughest 3 days of my life. I had an anatomy scan at 22 weeks, there were several soft markers for Trisomy 21. Echogenic foci (2) mild renal dialation, echogenic bowel, pericardial effusion and the most damning no nasal bone was present. This is my 4th pregnanc, never had this at any of the other scans. with that many soft markers it’s hard not to believe it couldnt be DS. I did do the NIPT and I’m waiting for those results but that’s still 7-10 out. I’m just wondering if any of you had these same markers or as many and baby turned out not to have any chromosomal abnormalities? Just looking for any little ray of hope here. Thank you
