Hello,
I had a relatively low risk NT combined result at 13 weeks however I decided (a little later than most) that with being 39 years old I would book in for an NIPT for extra reassurance.
I had my first test at 18+6 and had my 3rd redraw at 21+5. All 3 results came back as low fetal DNA so they can't give a result.
They have offered to try again a 4th time in 2 weeks (I'll be over 24 weeks by then) as they say the percentage of fetal DNA increases with gestation.
When I went in the 3rd time the sonographer seemed surprised that it was my 3rd attempt and suggested if this doesn't work it's not worth continuing.
Does anyone have any experience or advice as I'm not sure if I should just leave it now but also worried that something could be wrong after lots of Googling with suggestions that no result can infact be because of a chromosomal abnormality!?
Many thanks
