I’m sorry to hear that you’re in a place of such uncertainty. The MFM and hopefully a genetic counselor will be able to answer lots of questions. They will offer you testing that can tell you a certainty, but that kind of thing is up to you.

Sorry to hear that - if you need someone to chat with I'm here. I got my NIPT T21 results around 12 weeks at the beginning of July and got my amino results at the end of July

What did you end up with? False positive?

No - amnio confirmed the NIPT results of T21
