I work with first time mom's and one of my client had this test with much the same results as your daughter. What the numbers mean is that she has a minutely higher (2 points) chance than the average woman tested. This result was followed up by an extensive ultrasound which showed no problem. Baby is now almost 5 months old and a petite, perfect little girl. My client was also told the results over the phone and freaked out. Thank heavens the OB doc explained more fully and did follow up testing at her next visit. I don't know why they tell young mothers things like that over the telephone...doesn't give an opportunity to ask questions and express concern. Hopefully your daughters doc will follow up with further info so she can relax and enjoy the rest of her pregnancy.
