Antenatal Screening for Fetal Anomalies Results

Emma • 2 years and 9 months TTC’r, finally pregnant along with my partner David. I’m a Psychiatric Nurse with a background in graphic design.

Hi all,

Just had my screening results through. I’m happy considering my age. At 38 I thought the risk would have been higher.

Chance of Down’s Syndrome - 1 in 3800

Chance of Edwards’ or Patau’s Syndrome’s - 1 in 100000

Has anyone else had similar results? These look good to me but I’ve nothing to compare it to as this is my first.

This was a UK screening test combing blood tests and nuchal translucency.
