They were more than likely checking your amniotic fluid. It's nothing to be worried about.

It's called neucal translucency

If the measurement is below 3 you're fine

they were checking the fluid that's around and behind your babys spinal cord, its an early sign for spinal bifida

they did it to me also since my first son had it and I lost him before I was full term. its a second step test, first the ultrasound then blood work.
