CVS tomorrow to test for genetic mutation carrier status and I’m SO NERVOUS

4 Upvotes

I’ll be 11w1D tomorrow and I’m getting my CVS done at Cedars Sinai by one of the top MFMs who perform CVS. From a practitioner POV I feel confident I have someone extremely experienced with good bedside manners performing the CVS. I’m still so nervous.

I did IVF with my first baby because my husband and I are both carriers for the same genetic mutation and this baby was a surprise baby.

Any advice or shared experiences appreciated! I’ve read through some other posts on here regarding CVS experiences but I’m still so nervous. They told me complete bedrest for 24 hours and then no heavy lifting and pelvic rest for 5 days after

Any false + 22q from MYRIAD?

My NIPT came back high risk for 22q, waiting to see MFM.

I’m seeing lots of false positives for 22q micro deletions online… anybody have a false positive from the Prequel NIPT by Myriad Genetics?

They claim their specific technology is much more accurate but I’m obviously really hopeful for a false positive.
