High risk results for Downs Test - positive stories ?

57 replies

I received a phone call today that my blood has come back as high risk for Downs Syndrome with a 1 in 34 chance . I have an appointment tomorrow to discuss what happens next , tests etc. I think we are going to opt for private testing as I know there's a risk of miscarriage with an amniocentesis

Just wondering if anyone else has had similar results and gone on to have better results at the next testing ? I'm terrified ! Trying to stay optimistic but can't put it out of my mind

Congratulations on your test results. We had a similar scare at the 20 week scan so I know how difficult a time it is. Such a relief when you get a good result after Smile

Oh yay, I'm so happy for you! I've been hoping for good news each time this thread popped up higher in the list. Enjoy being pregnant with a lovely healthy baby!

Thank you 😊 still can't believe it's a boy ! Went to asda for a few things tonight and ended up grabbing some cute little dinosaur bibs that say 'a-roar-able' on. Haha

I know, I loved getting to know the baby's sex for certain as a bonus! Couldn't have dealt with crossed legs at the 20 week scan haha. Mine's a boy too. Smile

Yay congrats on your boy hipstercat!

Just been to visit my mum and she's bought a pile of boys stuff already haha! She's got 5 granddaughters already this is the first boy so think she might have been a bit excited to buy blue lol
