Question

I'm 12 weeks pregnant and went for my NT scan today. The ultrasound tech told me my baby's not in the right position to see its face. She tried twice with a 10-minute break in between, but it still didn't work. She said I should come back in the evening and if we still can't see anything, try again in a couple of days. She mentioned sometimes the baby's position isn't ideal for the scan, so it might take a few tries. Is this normal? Should I be worried?
