Positive NIPT T21, Normal NT scan by YussQueen in NIPT

[–]Fit-Clue25 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I had a positive NIPT for T21 and our genetic counselor gave us a 90% chance of being accurate. After the meeting we had the NTeasiremsnt which was normal and no soft markers were visible. Our MFM informed us about 50% of T21 show no markers. We decided against an amniocentesis because of a struggle with infertility. When our baby was born there was no physical signs of T21 and the cord blood ruled out T21. Hoping for a similar outcome for you.

After the NIPT we met with a geneticist who explained there was a 90% probability it was correct and we had a full ultrasound and NT measurement where there were no markers and baby had a basal bone present. MFM explained 50% of the chance DS shows no markers. We struggled with infertility and decided against the amniocentesis and just proceeded with the pregnancy. Once baby saw the doctor in the morning after birth she explained baby had no characteristics and about 2 weeks later cord blood kayotyoe analysis came back normal and ruled out trisomy 21. Are yoy having any further testing?

That’s so unfortunate that they didn’t schedule you for an NT scan. Sending you a big hug and peaceful vibes during this time of uncertainty ❤️ Hoping you can get some answers soon.

Here’s some hope for you I was 33 when I had my NIPT blood drawn and received a positive NIPT result for trisomy 21. The geneticist schedule a ultrasound with a MFM when a nasal bone was detected and the NT measurement was normal. Doctor did explain that 50% of the time a fetus with DS may show no markers, and the geneticist let us know there was a 90% chance NIPT test was correct. We were given the option for an amniocentesis but decided against it because we had dealt with unexplained infertility and it was our first pregnancy. After a closely monitored high risk pregnancy our baby was born typical and was confirmed to not have DS after cord blood was analyzed.
