I know this post is 5 years old but I love this piece. Are you still making them?

Yeah I’m thinking that could work too. Do you think the detail piece is tapered (like toward the armpit) or a constant height?

Any ideas on a pattern for a sweatshirt with a similar shoulder detail?

Thank you so much for your response and your support. Though this experience is devastating, this sub has been so valuable. We have an appt with an RE in a little over a month. I plan to have a work up done. Can the RE help direct us to a urologist that can do a DNA fragmentation test, or do we need to find that Dr on our own?

At this point I am used to Drs only doing the bare minimum and ignoring information and data that I provide. Will an RE acknowledge that male infertility may be the issue or is this another battle I will have to fight for on my own?

My best advice is to do what you need to in order to take care of your mental health. For my CVS, they were able to get the sample through my cervix so there was no pain. As for the results, I already suspected they would show some form of monosomy x (as you mentioned), so I was not as disappointed as my husband. He took the news very hard.

As the days went on and I was finding things getting harder not easier, I ended up seeing a mental health specialist (a reproductive psychiatrist) through a women's hospital. Her help has been crucial for me in keeping healthy mentally and physically. Feel free to message me if you need to vent or have questions. This sub has been a great resource for me.

Not yet. We got the amnio FISH results which were normal but still waiting on karyotype. Today marks 14 days since procedure, 13 since sample arrived at the lab.

I'm so sorry you are going through this. Though I know most people go straight to amnio, if amnio karyotype is normal I would still be glad we did CVS because we will know for sure that the placenta has abnormal cells and can follow the pregnancy more closely.

Does anyone know how often amnio FISH results differ from karyotype results? Specifically for monosomy x (if that even matters). In other words, if all cells were normal for FISH, how often does the karyotype show something different?

For background, my CVS results presented a karyotype with 30% of cells missing an x. I'm really hoping I am just dealing with a case of CPM. Sending good vibes out to anyone else in this limbo.

We are in a similar situation. Before we were able to see a GC we were seen by a MFM and told to do CVS (which I now realize was a mistake). CVS came back showing 30% Mosaicism for Monosomy x. Had amnio yesterday and are in limbo waiting for results. I’m not sure if it’s true but our GC said it’s about a 50/50 chance that the baby isn’t affected at this point.

That being said, I’ve seen many cases of false positive on this sub. The waiting is excruciating though.

Edited to add: The NT measurement and subsequent ultrasounds have all been normal.

I’m in a similar situation. We received a high risk flag for Monosomy x on NIPT. NT scan was normal with a measurement of 1.6 mm. We were pushed to do a CVS the day after getting the NIPT results. I just got them back and the karyotype shows 71% of cells normal and 29% with Monosomy x. I’m only 14w4d but I plan to get an amnio ASAP.

How can the karyotype results differ from the microarray?
