At my 12 week scan I was given 1/26 odds for t13 because of a high heart rate - 181bpm and low Papp-A and hcg. They offered CVS and I refused as I lost my last pregnancy due to CVS and there was nothing wrong with the baby. She had a 1/61 chance of DS.

So they offered me the harmony and booked me in for a cardiac scan at 16 weeks and an anomaly scan too. I've just come back and the heart looks fine - heart bpm is 152 so that's all good. I had my harmony results back on Friday and all trisomys come back as low risk, less than 1/10,000 risk. The anomaly scan however picked up a short femur length - smaller than the 5th percentile which the doctor said could be a marker for abnormalities and offered me CVS again which I declined. The harmony is 93.8% accurate so I really thought I was in the clear, but now I don't know how much I should be worrying about this - I'm sick of being in limbo.

I'm booked in for another anomaly scan at 22 weeks so 6 weeks away!! Anyone else had anything similar?
