Hand holding while waiting for Harmony test results

Just seeing if anyone out there is waiting for their harmony results? I had my test last Thursday and time seems to have stopped since then. Both my normal scan, and harmony scan seemed perfect, they were very thorough when testing, nt was very low, everything else functioning well, it's my low ppap-a blood test that is putting me at high risk of DS. Some days I feel positive and others I'm overwhelmed with worry. My job involves a lot of independent research/writing work, so I'm well behind on deadlines while I trawl through the internet for some hope.

Anyone else out there going through this agonizing wait?

Hi, after NHS gave us a 1:40 risk we had the Harmony Test. First time not enough DNA, second time it worked. We got 1:10,000 for T13 and T18 but an " intermediate result" for T21. Awaiting report. In meantime had NHS anomaly scan which shows some concerns, one soft marker and small baby, femur length on 10th Centile and an issue I do not quite understand and not think linked to trisomy issues ( brain issue we think).

Has anyone had an intermediate result? Not sure what it means.

Hi Ladies
I just wanted to share my story......
I was given 1 in 20 chance with the screening test for Down’s Syndrome.
At my 20 week scan they couldn’t see a visible nasal bone. I was then referred to Fetal Medicine. They confirmed no nasal bone on one side and a small piece on the other. They also said the femur bone was shorter than average and a narrowing in her ( I’m having a girl 🎀 ) tummy that could lead to a blockage. All 3 markers of Down’s Syndrome.
On Thursday evening I had the Harmony test and also a scan that was really positive. The lady who did the scan didn’t pick up on any abnormalities and now have to wait the 10 to 14 days for the results.
I’m expecting the result to come back as Down’s Syndrome but just have to wait and see.
Just wondering if anybody out there has had or is having a similar journey?
Look forward to hearing from you.
Jo 😀
