Harmony prenatal test - anyone know about it

today I am having a new kind of prenatal test called Harmony. It's non-invasive and seems to just be a new kind of blood test plus the regular nuchal scan but it's much more accurate than the traditional nuchal blood test. Apparently it's nearly as accurate as a CVS but without any risk.

I'm the only person I know who is having this test and nobody else seems to have heard of it let alone have been offered it. I just wondered if others have and knowledge of it and how accurate it is.

I got 1:80 risk from my 12 week tests, think it was because of a really high hormone level. Went and had harmony test done which came back the 1 in 10,000 low risk, I'm now 22 weeks and in my 20 week scan she said everything (she went through all the bits showing me they were all ok) was looking fine and that together with the harmony results should mean I go back to low risk and stop worrying. Hope that helps?

Thank you for your reply, I have a private scan next week and then the bus 20 week one the week after so I'm hoping they can also make me feel better.
Wishing you lots of luck for the rest of your pregnancy X

I've heard of harmony test, but none of my friend had tried it. Two friends of mine had non-invasive prenatal paternity testing dnasu.com/services/prenatal-test/ This testing is very accurate. So, I think, your kind is accurate too. And as it's non-invasive, you can take it.
