With DD1 it was 1: 18000
With DD2 it was 1: 3500 which i thought was a bit low (even though its not iykwim) as i'm only 25

With this pregnancy, it was 1:28,000, and I am 29.
Ours was around 1 in 21,000.
Mine came in at 1/37 for DS - due to age (41) and a 4.2 nuchal fold measurement. At my age the risk factor was something like 1/45 anyway so it didn't alter it much. Can't remember what the one for all the other chromosonal stuff was but it was in the thousands - way better than the average for my age. I had an amnio and no abnormalities were found. Everything they check at around 22 weeks was normal and in fact growthwise he's 5 days ahead of schedule.
Not sure how high it goes up to but anything under 1/300 is considered high risk and further investigations should be carried out.

i think mine was 1:43000 or something , so no risk for me ...very happy
My background risk (based purely on age) for T21 was 1:576 and for T18/13 1:993
My adjusted risk (based on age plus the blood tests and nuchal fold measurements) for T21 1:11504 and for T18/13 1:19845
These are the notes on my ultrasound letter. I don't know what the highest numbers you can get are but the cut-off between high and low risk groups is 1:300.
For my first DD my result was 1:12000 but for my little bub (girl) now, I was a high risk factor with 1:246 so I had an amnio and everything came back fine! Now I can't wait for the 20 week scan to see her and to see how she is coming along! I am 27.
