[quote=Anonymous]Hi OP, I know it has been a few months since you posted, but just another mom who experienced a baby with  Trisomy (T18 in my case). First, I just want to say how sorry I am for your loss. It still guts me a year later. We worked with an excellent MFM and genetics counselor (Dr. Kelly at VHC) in the course of the testing they were able to say that it was not inheritable and therefor unlikely to occur again in a future pregnancy given the extreme unlikelihood of it having happened in the first place. I was 42yo when it happened with a previous healthy straight forward pregnancy behind me at 38yo and they suggested that IVF would potentially be the way to short cut the line for blighted ovums, or other testable reasons that would make it more likely for a pregnancy to fail. We (more so my DH) did not have the emotional strength against the ticking clock of being older to try again, so I don’t have a happy ending to tell you. I do wish you the best of luck with whatever you choose and no that you are not alone in this lonely experience. [/quote]
