Re: NIPT Tests/Discussion/Questions/Results

  • @emilylove25 I am so sorry you have to wait until tomorrow. The unknown can be brutal. I will be thinking of you and hoping for positive results! Hopefully they were just busy and didn't get around to calling back (sounds like something my clinic would do). 
  • @EmilyLove25 I'm so sorry! Waiting is so hard, especially when you have negative thoughts creeping in. Hopefully if it was bad news they would have made it a higher priority to get back to you! I'm sending positive thoughts your way! <3

  • @EmilyLove25 I’m so sorry for the worries! The unknown is awful, especially when it’s an every day lab result to them, but it means everything to us. That’s how I was yesterday when a nurse told me the doctor would have to call me back. 
    Fingers crossed for good news, but just poor care on their part.

  • @EmilyLove25 I’m so sorry! I’m  so pissed at your OB for making you worry like this. Fingers crossed for good results! Sending you positive vibes!! ❤️
  • @emilylove25 I also just think they didn’t have time - but I know when you’re in this situation all rational thought goes out the window and your brain goes into self destruct mode. Looking forward to see you post the all clear tomorrow

    also have forgotten. Try not to worry! Hopefully you have the results by now.

  • @EmilyLove25 Maybe the office was just super busy yesterday and no one has had a chance to call you yet.  4:37 is pretty late in the work day and I wouldn't be surprised if you got pushed into today's tasks instead of yesterday's.  But even so, I understand how nervous you are and I hope nothing but the best for you and your baby!  Please let us know how it goes!  FX for good news!! <3
  • @Malidocious I JUST posted and all went well. And you are totally right and reasonable... I was not reasonable yesterday, at all. Hahaha. The nurse was VERY nice today, so it made me feel better about the practice.

  • @EmilyLove25 That is WONDERFUL news!!!  I'm sorry the waiting caused such stress, but what beautiful news to finally get. :)  I'm so happy for you!
  • Question: we had our NT today and then genetic counseling. The counselor discussed our options for testing since I will be 35 when this babe is born. We decided to do the NIPT even though the NT looked good. So we drew blood and sent that off today as well. My insurance requires pre authorization for this test which I was unaware of. Will they continue processing the test? Will they have to wait until insurance comes back? Will they charge me full price? Anyone had that happen before? Anxious we will end up paying 1000$s and my husband will not be happy. 
  • @keeksie84 congrats! I love being a mom to two girls. Sisters are amazing. 
  • @keeksie84 congratulations!!!!! Amazing that the results were great! Two girls is my dream, lol! But would be happy with anything :) 
  • @aliray123 I was spsd to get pre approval for some doctor appt and found our after teh fact and it ended up being okay. However, if I were you I would call now. Ask your doctor for the code for NIPT too so you have that ready when you talk to your insurance.

  • How long has it taken for those of you that have received results? I had my blood drawn on Wednesday morning & I'm anxiously awaiting the results! 
  • @EmilyLove25 and @MrsVP614 so glad to read both of your tests came back good! :):)<3 
  • I am so annoyed at my midwife's office right now.. my anxiety is through the roof.  So, the midwife told me he ordered the NIPT done on Monday the 12th.. but apparently the midwife never talked to the lab, and they never did the test!  I emailed the office and asked where my results were, they said I still need to take the test.   :'(  UGH.  And I'm almost at 2nd tri at this point.  I was with the same midwife last year when I got my t21 result, you would think he would remember me and know that I wanted this done as soon as possible to help with anxiety over this pregnancy, but he didn't seem to remember me at all, nor remember that I needed the test done.  

    So IDK what's going on at this point.  I hope they can get their crap together this week so I can go in and take the test (I'll be 12 weeks on Tuesday!)  I just want to know everything is ok.  I do have an ultrasound coming up the 5th, so at least I have that reassurance that they might be able to detect if something's wrong at that point....


  • @treetop19 I’m so sorry that they’re causing you so much anxiety. I would be so upset also! I hope they’re able to get you in early this week and get the test rush ordered!!
  • @treetop19 That's super frustrating! I'm sorry, and I hope you get some answers.

  • @treetop19 That is so incredibly frustrating. I cannot believe you are not getting EXTRA attention and promptness. I sure hope they get everything together for you ASAP. 

    @ashesdene I had my blood drawn on a Thursday at 8 AM. My results posted late the next Thursday, but I didn't get them from the nurse until Friday, so 8 days later. I also had to CALL to get the results. Who knows when they would have called me!

  • @treetop19 I’m so sorry, I would be furious and also anxious especially given your history. Hope you get the test done ASAP.
  • @treetop19 I can't believe they're being so negligent!!! I'm pester the hell out of them so that you can get new blood drawn ASAP. So sorry you're dealing with this.

  • @treetop19 oh I’m so sorry. With your history I can totally understand you being extra concerned. I’m also freaking out big time with our risk factors and had to do the draw twice - plus rush another time as they hadn’t given me the right form to sign so my results are also delayed which is freaking me out more.

    Can you just go to your OB/midwife and demand they do the blood draw and send it off immediately? And not leave until they’ve done it? That’s what I’d do in your position. It’s difficult to ignore a hormonal angry pregnant lady standing in your office...

  • @treetop19 I’m glad they are doing the test today. I wouldn’t feel bad at all for demanding it. They should be apologizing to you, it’s not like you are new to the practice. 
  • Well I’m still waiting - yesterday lab promised to have my results ready for my appointment this morning, but they didn’t and so we had a nice US instead. It was great to see little one - but man my terror in waiting for these Harmony results is through the roof. I was shaking uncontrollably in the waiting room today.
    Now DH has gone a business trip, so I’ll be alone and get a call tomorrow to say if I need to go into the OB and discuss the results or if they are ok.
