What's this test for?

This test is ideal if you're pregnant and want to understand your baby's risk for certain chromosomal conditions early in pregnancy. It's a simple blood draw that screens for conditions like Down syndrome and other chromosomal differences without any risk to you or your baby. Many people choose this test after a positive first-trimester screen, due to advanced maternal age, or simply for extra peace of mind.

What's included in this test?

This test analyzes small fragments of fetal DNA that circulate in your blood to screen for extra or missing chromosomes, which can cause conditions like Down syndrome. It also looks at sex chromosomes and, if selected, small missing pieces of chromosomes called microdeletions that can affect a baby's development. Screening these areas helps flag pregnancies that may benefit from closer follow-up before birth.

What happens after I get my results?

Your results will be available in your account, with each finding explained so you understand what it means. If your result shows increased risk, the report will outline next steps, which typically include genetic counseling and diagnostic testing to confirm the finding, since this is a screening test and not a diagnosis. A standard lab report is available for download from your account, and if you test again in a future pregnancy, you can track and compare results over time using the trends feature. If a result raises urgent concerns, discuss timing of further testing right away given the importance of gestational age.

How can I naturally support a healthy pregnancy?

While this screening looks at chromosomal risk factors that can't be changed with lifestyle, supporting a healthy pregnancy overall still matters. Eating a balanced diet, taking a prenatal vitamin with folic acid, staying active as recommended, and avoiding alcohol and smoking all support healthy fetal development. Regular prenatal check-ins and staying current on recommended screenings also help you stay informed throughout pregnancy.

When will I get my results?

Results are typically ready within about 7 days after your sample reaches the lab. You'll be notified as soon as your results are available in your account. Because timing matters in pregnancy, testing as early as recommended (after 10 weeks) helps ensure you get results with enough time to consider any next steps.

Who should consider this test?

This test is a good option for anyone who is at least 10 weeks pregnant and wants information about chromosomal risk factors, including those with advanced maternal age, a prior pregnancy affected by a chromosomal condition, or an abnormal first-trimester screening result. It's also chosen by people who simply want additional reassurance early in pregnancy. Talk through your personal risk factors and family history before deciding if it's right for you.

What symptoms or situations suggest I may need this test?

There typically aren't symptoms that point to needing this test, since chromosomal differences don't usually cause noticeable symptoms in early pregnancy. Instead, common reasons to consider testing include being 35 or older, having an abnormal ultrasound finding, a family history of chromosomal conditions, or wanting early screening information. If your prenatal visit revealed any risk factors, that's often a good time to consider this test.

What is a chromosomal abnormality and why does it matter?

A chromosomal abnormality happens when a baby has an extra, missing, or altered piece of a chromosome, which can affect how they develop and may cause birth defects or developmental differences. Conditions like Down syndrome (Trisomy 21) are examples of this. Screening for these early gives you more time to gather information, ask questions, and plan ahead.

What does a high-risk or positive result mean?

A high-risk or positive result means the screening detected a pattern associated with a higher chance of a chromosomal condition, but it is not a final diagnosis. False positives can happen, so the recommended next step is diagnostic testing, such as amniocentesis or CVS, to confirm or rule out the finding. Genetic counseling can also help you understand what the specific result means for your pregnancy.

What should I do if my results come back abnormal?

If your results show increased risk, the first step is to review the detailed report in your account to understand exactly what was flagged. From there, pursuing diagnostic testing is recommended to confirm the result before making any decisions, since screening tests can have false positives. Genetic counseling resources can also help you process the information and understand your options.
