Does this make me high risk for future pregnancies?

Hi I’ve just been through a termination of pregnancy for fetal abnormality 20+6. At my 20 week scan I was told my baby had alobar holoprosencephaly and was told there was a very poor prognosis. After an emotional few days the decision was made to terminate and I gave birth to a little girl. As she showed signs of life her death was classed as a neonatal death and the funeral was this week. Ever since I have felt like I’m lost. I have an amazing support network around me I just feel very sad at what’s happened.

I am currently waiting for genetic testing to come back to see if this will be a problem in future pregnancies. I am in no way ready to have another baby anytime soon and neither is my other half.I just wanted to know if anyone had been through a similar diagnosis and if they have went on to have a healthy pregnancy/ pregnancies. Were you classed as high risk for these pregnancies?

I also have a healthy boy who is 11 months old with my partner. He has been my saviour through all of this.
