I had my first NIPT at 10 weeks 2 days which came back as inconclusive. I had another test at 13 weeks 2 days which has also now come back as inconclusive.

My NT tests have come back as normal and low risk but I am still concerned and worried. Anyone has had a similar experience?

P.S- am not overweight

Gosh I've never heard of that, did the technicians have anything to say about it?

They said sometimes it happens as it depends on the rate at which our body gets rid of the foetal DNA.. it has been a very long wait and am stressed.

Although the doc has asked me not to worry since the NT scan and tests indicate everything as normal.

I agree with your doc - it is very unlikely that something would be wrong and then not showing up on the nuchal. The things they test for in the NIPT have soft markers, which are symptoms that show up on the nuchal screening. It's really very very unlikely that there would be no soft markers on the nuchal if something was wrong.

I can totally understand that this is weird and stressful event to endure but as of now, everything is looking good. :heart:

Thanks dreamofdaughter.. I am going crazy due to the wait. I have given a third sample test hoping that my luck would turn.. if not, I will have to wait for the 20th week anatomy scan..

Good luck to you and you can have all my pink dust [emoji4]
