hmmm.
very early in gestation.

anyway, the test you mentioned is a SCREENING test. not a DIAGNOSTIC test.

it cannot be used to confirm a disease , only suspect a disease. i am sure you know this already.

regardless of the test positive or not, there should be a date for DETAILED scan at around 18-20 week gestation to check for fetal abnormalities.
if normal, most likely a normal baby. if abnormal, need to discuss with obstetrician for further plan of management, depending on the scan finding.


my honest opinion.........it is a useless test. won't change any management at all. cost too damn high too.
