Nuchal Test Results

The Dr. called today and told me that everything is "within range". The results come back in one of two ways: "Within range", and "elevated risk".

Before I did the testing, my chances of having a baby with Downs Syndrome were 1 in 212.
After the test my chances are 1 in 4221.

Before the testing, my chances of having a baby with Trisomy 13 or 18 were 1 in 392.
After the testing, my chances are 1 in 7821.

No reason to do an amnio with those numbers....in our opinion, not worth the risk.

Next stop.....Level II Ultrasound and finding out PINK or BLUE. Will keep everyone posted when I make that appointment.

Good news all the way around!!!!
Can't wait to find out pink or blue. Should we be looking for that announcement on a dress Macie will be wearing?
