High Risk FTS

Hi mummies. I am >35 years old and expecting #3 now. I received some high risk results for Trisomy 13, 18 and 21 in my FTS results. I had already done NIPT so waiting for the results. It is extremely distressing for me as the ratio for Trisomy 18 was 1:18. Anyone has similar experiences to share some insights please?

Oh mum, I can really hear how worried you are, and that's completely understandable. Please don't sit with this alone while waiting for your NIPT results, especially with a ratio like that. Get in touch with your obstetrician or go to A&E straightaway to discuss what these numbers mean for your specific situation and what the next steps are. They can give you proper counselling and clarity that no one on a forum can, and you deserve that peace of mind as soon as possible. Sending you strength through this waiting period.
