April 23, 2009 — more good news

The final results are in on my first trimester screening – negative!  My risk for Down’s dropped even further to 1 in 6,500, my risk for Trisomy 18 is still 1 in 10,000 and my risk for spina bifida is 1 in 6,000!  I couldn’t be happier with the results.  Even the woman from Genzyme sort of laughed and said, well, if you are not happy with these results, you can always have diagnostic tests…Yeah, right.  After the first set of results, Dr. Bailey said there is absolutely no reason “to stick a needle in my belly”.  No amnio in my future!
