Any of you have bad NT results that turn out positive?

We had our NT scan yesterday.  Fold came back at 3.5 mm.  Had CVS done yesterday, will know preliminary results by Monday or Tuesday.  I feel lost, confused, and just blah.  Anyone have not so great results and everything came back ok?

I'm sorry, I don't have much experience with this.

It is quite possible everything will be fine, especially if your LO didn't have any other markers.

    I didn't, but my cousin did.  Her baby is 6 mos. old.  She did the NT scan and had a false positive.  Her baby was born with no issues whatsoever.

A girl on another board that I used to belong to had a result of 1:3 chance of her daughter having DS. They did the amnio and it came back that she was 100% healthy. I hope that it was just a false reading for you!

Not sure your age - but you may want to post this question on the Pregnant after 35 board.  Most of us over there have done the NT scan and I have seen false positives in posts.  The ladies over there are very helpful and I'm sure would be happy to share.

I had a false positive after the blood work..1:11 chance.  Did the amino...got the rapid amino back the next day and results said no downs!  I hear a lot of people get false positives, but its still hard to deal with.  Good luck!

My FIL's wife had a bad scan that put them at very high risk for Trisomy-18.  The amnio came back clean.  The baby is now a very healthy 3 year old.

Good luck.

One of my twins had a NT scan of 3.6.  We also went ahead and the CVS testing, and both babies came back healthy.  We were very nervous too and the wait was awful, but luckily everything came back fine!  Good luck!

I had a false positive after the blood work and also did the CVS with the rapid preliminary results.  The results came back negative for DS, but the 2 days of waiting for the results were pure torture.  Good luck, I hope everything turns out okay!
