Amniocentesis is normal which is reassuring. Check scan after 4 weeks.
Isolated nasal bone can be incidental finding as well. So nothing to worry as of now.

Assuming mother’s age less than 35-40 yrs
If amniocentesis report is normal
Then can wait till next scan to recheck the nasal bone hypoplasia. Usually this is associated with Down’s syndrome and other rare associations which should be kept in mind and ruled out in further weeks of pregnancy
Next Steps
Follow up scan,
