Hi
My husband and I went to our consultant follow up appointment this morning after my MMC two months ago. We found out our baby was a girl and the autopsy points to a chromosonal abnormality called Triploidy where three sets of chromosones are present instead of the 2 that should be there. The pathologist is fairly confident that this extra set were from the maternal side. The consultant was thorough going through the report and said that any further pregnancies would probably be classed as high risk and we would be talked through the chromosonal tests available. It was at this point that I told him I was already pregnant. I have done a bit of research and it appears that the likelihood of this abnormality recurring is no higher for me than for the general population so I'm hoping the consultant care is an acknowledgement of what has happened rather than something to get really worried about. Does anyone have any experience of Triploidy? I'd be very grateful to hear your experiences.
