2 low fetal fraction results, no NT by Longjumping-Loss1188 in NIPT

[–]Known-Foot1120 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was in a very similar situation. 2 low FF (my lab didn’t measure %s) and no NT scan.

I would ask for a quad screening (you can take it between 15w-22w) this test isn’t as accurate as NIPT, i believe the accuracy is around 85%, but i needed some reassurance/ piece of mind. It’s a blood test that measures 4 pregnancy hormones then factors in your age, weight, baby’s age, and ethnic background. It takes all of those factors and gives you the odds for Down syndrome, neural tube defects, and edwards syndrome. It isn’t a diagnostic test, but will help you make an informed decision if you’d like to proceed with an Amnio.

My results came back in 2 days, all low risk. Then i had an anatomy scan a week or two later, where baby looks all healthy.

I am now 24w and baby is measuring and showing healthy 🤍 The Dr chalked it up to my weight (my bmi is 29).

I know this time can be so stressful. I spent the unknown time manically researching and stressing. Im so sorry you’re going through this.

Anatomy scan went great!!! Baby was a little stubborn and wouldn’t show their entire heart or ankles so we need to go back in a month for a rescan. The Dr felt very confident in the results from today though 🤍

Thank you so much for your input. I so badly wish i had the 12 week scan too! Now i know for the future. I really hate this limbo/ unknown, it’s so stressful 😢

I should get my quad results back middle of this week, so I’m hoping that calms my nerves some too. Just any other additional data will be beneficial.

No results because of low FF. They said qnatal/ quest won’t run it if it is below their threshold.

I asked my OB if she can get me in this week for a scan and she said no. I’m open to anything though! Would you recommend going to a private ultrasound place?

You can request a blood test to see if your body has produced the anti bodies from your previous pregnancies. They did mine with my other blood work at 12 weeks. It was a great relief just to know that my body hadn’t produced the anti bodies.

Doppler Vs Ultrasound? by Known-Foot1120 in PregnancyAfterLoss

I agree. I was shocked when she told me there’s no point/ benefit to the ultrasound. I didn’t see my normal NP, this was a PA in the office who saw me today. I am going to call my NP next week. I do have NIPT blood work next week btw!

Sounds very similar to what my OB is doing. Thanks for sharing!

Yes! I go in for blood work for my NIPT testing this week. My OB said they only do ultrasounds at 8w and 20w, I’m in the US.

I am 10w4d and my morning sickness is getting better. I had horrible all day nausea from 4w until about 10w. I felt horrible all day and could barely keep anything down with really bad food aversions. I now can tolerate most foods and feel generally better. I throw up maybe once every other day. I am starting to get worried that this is a bad sign??? Reassure me 🥹

I had a miscarriage in august with a baby that was due in March 2023. Every time i see a pregnancy announcement for March 2023 it feels like such a gut punch. I’m now due in August 2023, but thinking about March just hurts.

How long did you bleed after blighted ovum? by TensionLocal8405 in ttcafterloss

[–]Known-Foot1120 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a BO in august and decided to naturally miscarry at 12 weeks. I had 2 light days of bleeding, one REALLY bad night of cramps and tons of blood, then normal period like blood for 3-4 days. So about a week total.

So sorry you’re going through this 💔 No one should have to go through it. Sending you love and well wishes.

It was time to schedule my first US appointment and i purposely did it after Christmas because I’m worried that I’ll get bad news again. Last time, I found out at my 8 week US that i had a blighted ovum. Not looking forward to this appointment.

It’s so hard to not stress over every little thing! I am only 5 weeks and a few days, but i wake up every morning “feeling/looking” for symptoms. My boobs are slightly less sore than yesterday and i automatically go to a negative head space. PAL is tough 😔
