A real concern or not?

I should have mentioned talking to a genetic counsellor! Yes, do that first.

I recently had my nuchal fold and at 41 was worried too. I was told that they wouldn't recommend an amnio unless I came back with worse numbers than 1:300.

Don't feel bad for not knowing what you would do. I felt the same way and I imagine we're not the only ones who would struggle with the decision.

Good luck with whatever you decide to do.

My sister was given a 1:42 chance & had the amnio. She was so stressed & had to have some hard conversations with her partner.
In the end it was a lot of stress for nothing. Perfect gorgeous child!

Do what you want to do & don't be pressured into something.

Best of luck.

I was offered both the Amino and CSV after both of my NT scans. My first preg at 36 was either 375 or 725 (Im bad I cant remember) and they said although that was technically low risk they would still 'encouraged' me to do them due to my age.....I declined and they were fine. This time I was 39 when we got preg and my result was 1185 again I was offered the amino or CSV....again I declined....I think sometimes they just do it to ensure they have covered themselves....Luckily both of my doctors suggesting the tests were perfectly fine when I said no. They just re-iterated that there is still a chance no matter how slight...and made sure I understood that.

Goodluck with your talk on Monday!
