Hello, and I hope I can help you today.

The clot you described from behind the baby is usually gone once you stop bleeding. As long as you follow your doctor's advice, this should not be a problem with the pregnancy for the future.

The test that your doctor is recommending for you is called a nucchal translucency test or a first-trimester screen. It is a routine test recommended for all pregnant women to estimate the risk of Down's syndrome and other types of birth defects. The test is just an ultrasound of the baby and taking measurements and usually a blood test on the same day.

I hope this answers your question and best wishes for the rest of your pregnancy

Sincerely, Dr. Brown
