Yeah! I am very excited to report good news from my serial sequential screening. Based on the nuchal fold translucency ultrasound and 2 different blood tests at different times, we saw the following change in statistics:
Risk of Down Syndrome (Trisomy 21) went from 1:330 to 1:4,600.
Risk of Trisomy 18 went from 1:3300 to less than 1:10,000
Risk of neural tube defects went from 1:900 to less than 1:10,000.
So these are great results and there is no way I'm risking a miscarriage to have an amniocentesis at this point. Today, I will be excited to hear the baby's heartbeat during my appointment with the midwife and I'm still super excited about Friday's Level 2 Ultrasound.
