Hi Ladies - just wondering if any of you have any experience yourself or know of anyone who is a balanced translocation carrier?
We just got back our D&C report and there is a chance myself or DH are balanced translocation carriers. We did our blood work this morning but have a week to a week and half wait for results. In the meantime I'm doing a lot of online research but thought it would be helpful to talk to someone who has experience with this.
Thanks. Good luck to you all!
Re: Balanced Transolcation Carrier? D&C Report
Hi There,
So sorry for your loss and hope your results came back negative for b/t. If not, you can have a healthy baby w/ a balanced translocation so keep your chin up!
I'm so sorry for your loss. Our second loss had an unbalanced translocation. We had our chromosomes tested and fortunately they came back normal. I found this blog post very helpful in understanding what the issues were (playdoh helps anything!): https://julia.typepad.com/julia/2005/05/balanced_transl.html. Hope you get good news. GL.
ETA: Tried and failed to make that clicky!
