My sister has been TTC for 7 years, and after 5 x IVF, they gave up. She's 36, and just found out a few months back that she's expecting (naturally!)
We're obviously all thrilled for her, but it seems their joy is short lived as they've now told her that she is high risk for DS after the screening blood test.
She has been given 1/65 odds. Or another figure they gave was 98.5% chance the baby will be normal.
I know that she would never consider a termination, or even the diagnostic test as it holds a risk of miscarriage - but I wondered if any ladies here have had a similar experience they could share?
Many thanks for your kindness
