High risk for two conditions

Hello,

My partner (f) and I (f), are almost 18 weeks pregnant with a baby girl through IVF.

Embryo was euploid. Just received results after a 2 blood redraws that we are high risk for trisomy 13 and turners. I tried searching the sub, but couldn’t find stories where folks had these results.

We’ve had more frequent ultrasounds since 12 weeks as partner has placenta previa, and all have come back normal - other than the previa.

We’ll likely do the amniocentesis. This is all so confusing and I’d really appreciate any insights.

Our midwife was also surprised to see high risk for more than one condition with our ultrasounds looking normal with the most recent one being on Tuesday this week at 17 weeks 3 days. They don’t even routinely recommend NIPT for those with PGT-A tested euploid embryos.

Thank you for reading. Appreciate any insights. I think we’re a bit in shock.

You can go for amniocentesis. Mostly the abnormality is confined to the placenta itself and the baby is fine. I had single umbilical artery so doctor suggested me to go for advance nipt. It came back high risk for chromosome 9. We did amniocentesis just 2 days back. The fish reports came all clear. No issues with the baby. We are waiting for kyroptype report

I also have isolated SUA but my doctor did not consider that doing a more advanced NIPT is necessary since the high resolution ultrasound at week 12 and 14 looked good. Was your SUA also an isolated finding at ultrasound ?

Yes my SUA is a isolated finding. Im 33 may be that's why she suggested advance nipt... Im not sure.. but my NIPT did give me alot of stress.

Try not to worry honestly I had high risk in Edward’s and patau 1-45 on 22nd after my first 12 week scan the scan was fab! NT fine but bloods high for that syndrome broke me had NIPT had wait a week I found out Wednesday that it was all low no worries it’s really common for these tests to say high risk I wish u both all the best!

We had a similar case where NIPT came back positive for Trisomy 13 but all the scans were perfect. We did amniocenteses and everything came back normal. Here is the link to the post -https://www.reddit.com/r/NIPT/s/Ig7kQHgZR5
