Hi,
Received results following scan & blood tests.
1:19 Downs
1:250 Pataus
HCG 1.04
PAPP-A 0.86
Nuchal fold: 2.9mm
I’m 40, first pregnancy and we had trouble conceiving. We are both really upset, and I know for my age it’s 1:80 chance anyway. I’ve read such mixed things about results, and babies being okay vs not that it seems less like statistics and more like fluke.
I don’t know much about the CVS test but it seems most people on threads have the Amneocetis (sp?). I’ve read there are issues around the harmony and NIPT test accuracy.
It is quite overwhelming, and there is so much to consider. Not sure I could have a termination…
Any insight re my results or people that have had a similar experience? Meeting with the midwife to discuss today.
