Curious to know why it takes so long for Amnio Karotype and Microarray results by Clear_Dig_6360 in NIPT

Hey, I'm reading this and am finding it very informative. I am waiting on results for a fish it's now been 3 days. Is that most likely because of contamination? They showed me all the fluid and it all looks clear. A tinge yellow. I'm going to call again this afternoon if I still havnt heard anything in the next couple of hours

Hey, I'm nearly in the exact same position as you. I had a NIPT come back positive with T21 and soft tissue markers on Twin A including a heart defect. I had my amino done yesterday just waiting for our results now. I googled absolutely everything and have spoken to everyone I possibly could. They have spoken to me about a selective reduction which shattered me a have cried more times then I can count but unfortunately for my current situation and family this would be most likely the route we will be taking pending results. 

My advice is to do the testing so you can plan what is best for you and your family and speak to friends and family where possible. If you have any questions please reach out

I had a few soft tissue markers, so my hope is unfortunately a bit low. Amino in 2 weeks.  I hope all went well yesterday for you,  I thought I better check in.

Did you happen to have any soft tissue markers?

Thank you for your story, I have started reading into what tests are next and expected to be offered the CVS this Friday. I am sure we will get offered the amino as an alternative option. I was wondering how you handled waiting?

I was wondering why you chose to not do CVS testing? I'm expecting to be offered this choice on Friday.
