Echogenic foci + ARSA

Hi everyone, I just went for Ultrasound last Tuesday and the DR found out that my baby has these 2 symptoms. So, after discussion, we decided to go for blood test and waiting for result to know if my baby has Down Syndrome. By the way all the other Ultrasound results came out to be fine but only these 2 was highlighted. The Dr also said that it might be my age. Im 33 this yr… anyone experienced the same issue before? I cant sleep well for now..😔

Hi dear, These 2 symptoms are indications that there is a chromosomal mutation ie Down Syndrome. Mother’s age increases the risk of it. I know it’ll take some time for test results to come back and the waiting is a torture. Perhaps it’s time to have a heart to heart with hubby about the possible challenges in the future. Babies with Down syndrome can still lead very happy and full lives. Hang in there!

Hi mama, I am currently 20 weeks and sonographer detected isolated ARSA in my baby as well. We’re still deciding if we should take harmony or amniocentesis. My FTS results were low risk (1/10,000 ), now adjusted risk is (1/2700 ). May i know if you took any further tests like harmony / amniocentesis?
