Last week I had the first trimester screening done. Scan looked perfect, NT normal, nasal bone present and measuring correctly.
Once the blood results came back I was moved to a 1 in 98 chance of having trisomy 18 or 13 as my bHcG and Papp A were both abnormally low. 1 in 98 still only means a less than 2% chance but I'm a mess. This is my first pregnancy conceived via IVF and i just don't know what to do or how to feel.
Today I have had the verifi non-invasive screening done even though that is still only a screening test. I would have to wait a couple of weeks for the amnio and to be honest I just needed to feel like I was doing something. The results will take 7 to 10 days so I need to try and not focus on this as it will make me ill.
I'd love to hear if anyone is going through this right now or has gone through this as I feel so alone. I have a few pregnant friends right now who got pregnant so easily and now everything is going so well for them I just don't feel I can relate.
Thanks so much for reading!
