Downs Screening results not good.

[Joy and Ben]

I had the triple test done and my results came back as low risk for downs but high risk for spina bifida, had extra scans etc and eveything turned out fine. My friend had a high risk downs result and had amino etc and everything was fine. As someone said earlier the triple test brings up a lot of false positives and doesn't mean there is something wrong.

Good luck

What I should have said is that in our area (staffordshire) they are doing a pilot. I haven't had a triple test, I had a normal dating scan, was weighed and asked about the weights of previous babies etc and six lots of bloods taken.

My consultant said so far, they have't missed a single case of Downs but she didn't say how many false positives they'd had.

Babylicious, I'll be thinking about you honey too, how long till you get your results?

I had a high risk (1/55) with my first pregnancy. I was 37 then and opted for an amnio. Results were totally normal and I have a beautiful healthy daughter.

I had another amnio with this pregnancy as I'm now 44 but again, I had completely normal results.

I'm sure everything will be fine for you. Oh - and please don't worry about the amnio procedure. It's not as bad as it sounds. If you need any further info, just let me know

Happy wishes for a good result, remember the numbers are still a one is whatever chance and not anything like a 50/50 chance.

Hope things work out ok- like other people said these tests are notorious for false positives. Hopefully everything will be fine
