First pregnancy, high risk T21

(29F) healthy adult, work out often, minimal alcohol, first pregnancy and was given a 9/10 chance on trisomy 21 today. I’m still processing the news and am hoping for a miracle that we’re the lucky 10%. We did NIPT through Unity and they drew at 9w3d which seemed early to me.

Any stories of false positives?? I have 11 healthy nieces and nephews on my side so this is all new to us.

29F, 5’7” - My normal adult weight was always around 142 and with Reta I was maintaining 128 lbs. Well I went off it right away after getting pregnant, I’ve been hungry often, and I’m 10 weeks and already gained 9 lbs. Since I was likely underweight for my body’s ideal weight, do you think my body bounced quickly back up to accommodate the pregnancy? First pregnancy, no morning sickness or food aversions. I’m also strength training 5x/week. I’m trying not to be too concerned since I’m prioritizing muscle gain and can go back on Reta after the pregnancy
