Prenatal Screening - Amnio vs. CVS vs. non-invasive options

[suzhan]

How long did you have to wait after the NT screen to get your results? I'm having mine next Friday the 26th and was wondering when I could expect the results?

Thanks ladies!

Suzhan,
I had mine done on 29th and I am expecting to hear back on the 5th.

I actually already got the results of my test last Friday - it was considered a negative screen with 85% accuracy - 1 in 300 chance of downs and 1 in 10000 chance of tri 18. I have to have another blood test in a month to confirm these results and then they say the accuracy will go up to 95%. 1 in 300 still seemed kind of high to me, but the doctor says it's a negative screen for downs at this phase......so we're still thinking we'll avoid the amnio if the tests still look good at week 17.

Thanks for the response!
