had a missed call today.need to phone back in mornong.obviosly not good and going to be high risk coz didnt get the letter.im terrified for 9am.nt was only 1.4mm so assumed all would bw fine.im 25.must have had something really bad in my blood to bring it to high :-(
 
mine was 1.2 and I was told i'd get a call this week. wasn't told about a letter at all. please don't worry until you know there's something to worry about x
 
Dont worry until you have to! They could just be calling you to say you are low risk, specially since your nt was really good.

I got the dreaded call to say my risk was 1:20 at 27 years old because of bad bloodwork, had an amnio, and all is fine. Really hope you are low risk, it was the darkest two weeks of my life xxxx
 
i had the call saying im high risk aswel. i'm 34, the nuchal was 2.3mm which i thought was normal but the screening midwife said its 0.5mm too big for my 13 week gestation and my risk is 1:51. i cried at first but then i was ok. im not having the amnio but an extra scan to check for abnormalities x
 
my chances are 1/95 :-( anyone got any words of wisdom? considering the harmony blood test if anyone has heard of or done that?
 
Heard of the blood test but its not offered on nhs. Have to pay for it. Around 600 pounds I think.
 
I'm sorry :( Having just gone through it I know how stressful being high risk is. But you still have an almost 99% chance of having a healthy baby so just try to focus on that.

I was offered the harmony test for $1400. The dr told me it was 99% accurate and would take about 1-2 week to get results back. However some results come back "inconclusive". I was so stressed i just needed to know asap so i went for an amnio. I found the babycentre website had the most info and support. https://community.babycenter.com/groups/a2895185/amniocentesis_support_information_group

I am sure everything will turn out fine. Big hugs xxxxx
 
ive booked harmony blood test for today.cost nearly 700! but i need to know.im too early for an amnio so would prob get these results back before i even got booked for amnio.my cousin had a miscarriage after having that so im petrified and tryinf to avoid it.so guttes.my nt was 1.4 and im 25.really thought i was gona be low risk
 
I haven't had mine yet but at 36 years of age I'm bricking it. Hoping you girls all get lovely clear results for your additional tests xXx
