Hello all, I had a mom contact me and is asking several questions on why her "Angels" syndrome did not get picked up when she had several ultrasounds...and the AFP.... Question....Does the AFP always catch the trisomy syndrome? Anyone have a normal AFP and then have a trisomy child? She was told her child was t13 I've never heard this....I'll look forward to your responses...thanks.. ThereseAnn My AFP with my pregnancy with Ryan showed up normal... and Ryan was born with mosaic Trisomy 18. He was diagnosed 3 months after he was born. But from what i understand there are lots of things that can "throw off" the results either negative or positve with an AFP screening.
