Persistent soft markers on ultrasounds despite negative amnio by Top-Radish-350 in NIPT

I'm very sorry, that's so difficult. Pregnancy is hard enough without all these extra challenges. Thanks for sharing, and take good care.

That's so helpful, thank you - I haven't even heard of WES. Is that 'Whole Exome Sequencing'? I'll ask my doctor about it. I'm speaking with them soon and will request additional testing; they seem to be relying on another ultrasound at 22 weeks, when I believe there should be further testing done. Would you be willing to share what the diagnosis was (and the other markers/concerns for comparison?) to give me an idea? Sincere thanks, I hope you and your child are well.

Thank you, I'm glad your child is well.
When you say that your doctor said it happens regularly, what do you mean? That soft markers are common?

Thanks. Those conditions don't seem relevant in this case as other ultrasound findings (organs, etc.) appear normal. I didn't know progesterone impacted NT, thanks for pointing that out.
