At my FMU appointment today, they detected that my baby girl has aberrant right subclavian artery which was hiding behind her windpipe. This could be something to do with her oesophageal and her heart. I took NIPT test last month and so and it was negative.
Did your baby had ARSA? What were symptoms and the treatments?
Could do with your support and welcome your share of experience with your baby ARSA.
I may have more appts with Cardio forthcoming and plan ahead with birthing.

I’m sorry to hear about your unborn baby. Unfortunately I don’t have direct experience of that particular congenital defect (I am a congenital heart disease patient myself), but what I know if so if I were in your shoes is to push for a referral with a paediatric cardiologist and understand all the facts such as survival rates/ safe birth plans/after birth care/possibility of surgery etc.
The more prepared you arrive to the birth, the better will be for your baby.
