Morning ladies, I was hoping that someone might be able to help me with information about how long quad testing can take.
I was ill through my childhood and, at 33, this is my first pregnancy- something that I never thought would happen because of all the treatment operations and medications I had to take for my illness.
I went for my 12 week scan but after 4 attempts we were unable to get a nuchal translucency as little one was doing a very good impression of tigger so I asked to have a blood test done instead.
At 16+3 I had bloods taken which were for a quad test, and the nurse had said to me these results would be with me in a week,but having not heard anything in that time i contacted the hospital and they said the results took 6 weeks???
That would preculde an early detailed scan and give a very short window to make any decisions.
can any of you tell me how long it took for you guys to get the quad results? (hcG, AFP inhbin and estriol)
the not knowing and worry is just awful and all I can think about is the damage the drugs I had to take might have done to my eggs...
