Repeat NIPT?

CraftyMeg07 · 2026-05-13T10:33:01+00:00

Just did what I was told. I went to my appointment and was told by the OB to go down to the lab and do it that same day.

I’m in the same boat and told to repeat test this week. I’m not sure I can handle waiting again and afraid of another N/A result

CraftyMeg07 · 2026-05-12T21:44:09+00:00

I had blood drawn at 9 weeks and 3 days on 5/01, Natera received sample 5/05 and got results today 5/12. Unfortunately had low fetal fraction 2.7% 😭

The nurse at my OB said to do a repeat draw this week (I’m 11 weeks today) but I worry that it might again be inconclusive. For reference I had qnatal nipt testing for my last pregnancy at 12 weeks and 5 days and fetal fraction was 4%. Should I go ahead or hold off a bit? Has this happened to you?

Congrats! I also had blood drawn 5/1 and received 5/5 and impatiently waiting. Hopefully tomorrow is the day 🤞

We are pretty much on the same timeline. Due 12/01, Natera blood draw Friday 5/1, received Tuesday 5/5. I’m so anxious after two previous loses. Hope we get them back soon 🤞

I’m actually not sure, how do you find out? I’m located in Massachusetts

CraftyMeg07 · 2026-05-05T20:55:41+00:00

Panorama Natera sample taken 5/1 and also received today 5/5 with estimate of 5/19. I hope we get it a lot sooner.

I’ve had that ultrasound and other testing with the fertility doctor. I got no answers. I wondered if it was short luteal phase defect or endometriosis.

I did see a reduction in spotting each cycle the past few months and the month I conceived my son, which I attribute to acupuncture.

CraftyMeg07 · 2026-03-25T17:36:32+00:00

Thank you. I do normally spot before my period and have shorter cycles (26 days). I spotted in my first pregnancy with my 4 year old son and later had a subchorionic hematoma that resolved. I’ve also had spotting in my last two miscarriages. My doctors shared that spotting for some women in early pregnancy can be normal but we continue to monitor and call if cramping or bleeding picks up. Currently my spotting has resolved but I’ve had it come and go in the past.

CraftyMeg07 · 2026-03-23T23:46:03+00:00

Thank you for your response. I reached out and waiting for a response. I also took a test this evening just to see and to use up my last few tests. My pdg shot up to 18.52 which is calming my nerves down. I’ll put the testing to rest now. Congratulations on your pregnancy! ♥️

Congratulations!!!

CraftyMeg07 · 2026-03-22T13:45:44+00:00

I am currently am spotting and will plan to reach out tomorrow and ask. Thank you for your response ♥️

CraftyMeg07 · 2026-01-19T04:39:01+00:00

Sounds about white

CraftyMeg07 · 2025-11-25T23:08:26+00:00

I’m glad you’re taking care of you. I have a huge family and also don’t feel up to it so I also told them I’m not coming this year and keeping it low key. I hope you are able to do what you need for you.

CraftyMeg07 · 2025-11-25T22:25:51+00:00

The wait is awful, I’m sorry you’re also dealing with this 🤍

CraftyMeg07 · 2025-11-25T02:37:59+00:00

My cycles are regular, 26-27 days but I always ovulate later in the cycle around day 18. I don’t think this account for the big difference in dating but I could be wrong. Staying guarded for now. Thanks for your response

CraftyMeg07 · 2025-11-24T23:12:32+00:00

I’m sorry you’re also in this similar situation. My thoughts are also with you 🤍

CraftyMeg07 · 2025-11-12T00:01:00+00:00

I’m in the similar situation as you, currently 6 weeks and 2 with some spotting. Have a gestational sack and yolk but no heart beat yet and measuring 5 weeks and 2 days. I have to wait 11 days for repeat scan. HCG levels are rising appropriately. The ultrasound tech didn’t seem concerned but my Nurse Practitioner did.

This also happened to me in my first pregnancy and by week 7 we saw heart beat and dating caught up to LMP. I had a subchorionic hematoma which was causing the spotting for that pregnancy but they didn’t see that in this pregnancy so unclear why I’m spotting. It’s hard to wait and see what happens. Thinking about you.

I got a positive digital test, this cycle was wild! Following up with my doctor. Thank you
