I’m currently waiting on my NIPT results and have around 5 working days to go.

my results were
NF 3.4mm
HCG 0.83
PAPP 0.64

has anyone had similar results or going through this at the moment?

Thank you for highlighting this with sensitivity on the use of chance or risk. I used the quote from my letter from the NHS however I can see that risk sounds like it’s a risk of having a healthy child with DS. Please note my fear here wasn’t having a child with DS but being advised statistically if my baby was confirmed it would be unlikely I could carry full term.

Yeah my delivery was difficult baby had passed her meconium in the womb, then had umbilical cord compression which resulted in emergency section - thankfully all safe and okay!

difficult part now is navigating infant allergies with CMPA 🥲

Life with CMPA gets better, it won't seem like it but it does my DC is 18 months old now and I breast fed until they were 9 months old so cut it from my diet too.

The first few weeks/ months where it was trial and error was tough.
They also had reflux, on health visitor advice i tiled their cot with books and when cutting dairy didn't work I also cut Soya and then egg and life got a whole lot easier. There are some fantastic CMPA groups on Facebook I'd advise you to look at.

Good luck and enjoy your DD x
