Has anyone had ‘high risk’ results from combined screening?

We’ve been given a high risk results for Down syndrome and trying to process it all. Waiting for the result for NIPT. Just wondering if anyone else is going through the same as it’s a horrible feeling

I did in the past. Sadly my baby didn't survive, because he had additional health problems. I know it's a lot to take in, but there's a lot of outdated information regarding Downs Syndrome. With the right support they can lead fantastically full lives. Maybe start by following a few mothers on Instagram with children with DS, there's loads of great ones. @makingmilliestones, @tashcard, @henriettalivesey, @baileyandthebabies. So many and they'll give you a real slice of life. You'll see it's not so different. 🩷 Honestly, it's scary at first but I'm sure you'll come to see it as a gift, you're part of the lucky few who get to be in this club. I wish my boy had made it, I miss him every day. We have even spoken about adopting a child with DS in the future. If you ever would like to talk, please do message.

Just because they are high risk doesn’t mean they will have it, I have a few friends who had an nhs funded NIPT because of high risk results and NIPT showed no conern x

I did, I’m not sure what my hcg was but my Papp was normal apparently and nt2.7. I’m just waiting for nipt results.

Did you get a letter or just a phone call?

I had an appointment for fetal medicine because the NT measurement was high and they told me at the appointment, I think it was pure coincidence that we had the appointment the same day they had the results. But been told it’ll be a phone call either way for NIPT. It’s such a horrible wait 😞 wishing you lots of luck

Yes you too. I can’t stop googling what could have caused the high risk result other than my age as I wasn’t told anything else.
