Marry her. Anytime she is pregnant, you'll do a test to see if the baby is SS. If yes, you'll abort it and try to conceive again

Tah- deh...
For every 4 kids one must must be a sickler

No, you're wrong! All, three, two or one could be sickler and none could be sickler. Each pregnancy is about probability, not all the four pregnancies combined together. There is nothing like "must".

and advising him to start testing child blood in womb cry what of if the results is SS so they with abort it. God is watching
Abortion is about what your belief is, nothing more

Was it as a result of complications from the procedure or Sickle cells complications itself?

Complications from the procedure.

If the two of them are AS then the possibility that they will give birth to a child with AA is 25% and the possibility of them giving birth to children with AS is also 50% and then the SS is 25%

We're done talking about this.

There's a way out medically, but it's way expensive... It filters out the genetically compromised cells before the child is born.

If you don't have the money... please abort the mission.

Because when the wahala starts...love will dry.


But it's still probability...your children might be all SS , and it can happen that none has .Those crosses are accurate in case of multiple births, like animals that give birth to 10 at a go.

But for humans, we give bith one at a time which makes it very risky as you don't the result


So, it's not worth the risk

Biglittlelois:
Your solution is bone marrow transplant, do you have the financial capability for bone marrow transplant when you birth a child with SS? Because you will surely have one or two, so do you have the financial capability to travel out of the country to do a bone marrow transplant for your SS kid? Are you willing to risk it? Because that child may not even survive the operation, can you live with yourself after the expenses and loss knowing you consciously and delibrately let it happen?

My honest advice for you is do not get married, you will find love again with a compatible partner, for your own good.
Is it possible to have a lucky AS child out of AS + AS?

And that 50%(2/4 = 1/2), 25%(1/4) and 25%(1/4) are all possibility (probability) for each pregnancy. Nothing like "must".
I have seen a couple having four children with two SS and another couple having four children with all the four children being SS.

This genotype of a thing sef do spoil a lot of plans and causes a lot of heartbreaks!
But if I may ask, I know that over 50% of people don’t do genotype tests, they get in together, bear healthy children and live happily till death parts them,
Does it mean that they all have compatible genotype?
I want to know , cos until recently I have never heard about this genotype test of a thing in where I grew up and a lot of people are living happily with healthy children.

Genotype doesn't change, it's always a case of wrong diagnosis either because the scientist is an amateur or faulty equipment.

As for the new genotype, abort mission immediately. I'm glad you already know that. All alternatives available are costly and invasive. Better abort mission now.

It's a shame that we Africans are still living in the stone age. In many countries of the world, they don't even check for genotype. Why? If they give birth to children that are SS, they carry out bone marrow treatment which cures the children and they grow up healthy with no concern. But because our rulers are criminals, they do not think in that direction and our universities are not even doing research to solve problems peculiar to us. This problem has been solved since but because we live in the past, we still see it as a huge problem
ignorant talk....only Africans have the SS and AS genotype....it is not an Oyibo problem

Try do some research

My fiancée and I have been engaged for about 7 months now. About when we started, she told me her genotype was AA of which she showed me the test result so I never really took it upon myself to confirm mine which I had been believing as AA.

Recently I went to confirm mine and it turned out to be AS. In shock, I asked her to recheck hers since the result she'd been working with was from when she was a baby. She checked at the first hospital and it surprisingly turned out to be AS. Immediately she did another one at another hospital/lab and it still came out as AS.

I know what most people will say is that that's the right test and we are not compatible medically (which though gruesomely painful, I understand).
but my questions are then these:

1. How do genotype test results change over time? I know they don't since it's based on genetics but how on earth was it possible that she tested AA before but not now (my head is so messed up right now).

2. I know the plain, straightforward answer for situations like this, for most people, is that we path ways due to the outcome of our genotype and I get it. But I want to ask, is there any possibility of an alternative at all? Maybe something that's not so conventional that some people in such situations have done to help them still marry and bear children without issues.
I understand if you think this question is stupid but I'm am a possibility thinker and I know that the world/internet is filled with possibilities.

If you know, please kindly help out. Thank you....


Relying on genotype test done while one is a child can be misleading ...Another factor is the quality of the lab ...this is a function of the physical structure and the personnel...I had a personal experience when I went for my nysc ....The identity card given to us carries our blood group ...Before going I visited a popular lab in ikeja to do both genotype and blood group ..They made a mistake in my blood group ...They gave me 0+...and i gave it to the authorities ...After our orientation I became sick and decided to visit a hospital in lagos ...a sample of my blood was taken and my sister requested the run a test of my genotype and blood group ...To my greatest surprise the result came out to be A+....I was treated for typhoid and malaria .....I told my sister that I am confuse...so I decided each time that I have typhoid...I.most conduct same test again ...I visited 3 different hospitals and the result is A+....The carelessness of that big lab could ve caused me my life ...Nothing is certain in Nigeria....still run many test on your fiacee ...if the result still remains AS ...kindly move on with your life cos I wo t help you to be nursing a sick child for life.

Well, I’m in the same predicament was born AA, all my siblings are AA but as I ran the test again as an adult na AS I Dey see, done the test up to three times in different labs and it’s still saying AS…..

Now my mom and Dad are both AA, my genotype at birth says AA, so what changed, doctors in the house
if it is proven beyond doubt that your parents are AA and you are AS then likely your Dad is not your Dad

Your fiancee didn't test AA when she was young, she assumed she was AA.

Maybe she deliberately lied to you in order not to lose the financial support she was getting from you. Like my ask you the following questions:

1 Did she tell you she was AA after you told her your genotype or before?
2: What prompted her to retake it when she has done it before? Maybe she decided to do it now because it's time to dump you for another guy.

Re: My Fiancee Tested AA For Genotype When Young, Now She's Testing AS by miazadavid(m): 9:01pm On Jan 20
There is an advanced technology in assisted reproduction like IVF called pre-implantation diagnosis. The genotype of the embryo will be tested, before it will be transfered into the woman's womb, it doesn't involve termination of pregnancy, if the embryo is SS, they will just switch to another embryo
For now it is expensive and few facilities do it in Nigeria
There's hope for those with AS genotype
And there is also early detection of fetal genotype via use of the maternal blood, the disadvantage of this is that's the pregnancy will be terminated if it is positive for SS genotype
If you have the money, it's possible for the both of you to have a healthy family

Happened to my wife and I. Obviously, we went ahead to get married and have three kids. Turns out that long ago, the methodology for testing is slightly different from now. Well, our age and youthfulness and I guess faith made it possible for us to have no SS kid.

Furthermore, we considered CVS and Amniocentesis to test the genotype of the foetus, and also Pre-Implantation Genetic Testing via IVF to to have kids.

OP, Sorry to hear about your predicament.
There were several genotype testing errors years ago in Nigeria. I for one was tested AA for my admission into uni. AA for NYSC.
This was in the late 90s and early 2000s. I ended up being AS when my GP tested my genotype. I didn't believe but I had two separate tests done in Lekki and Jabi the following year and I was still AS. At the time I had already married my wife who I knew was AS from the start so you can imagine the situation we were in.

It is not a death sentence if you have the means. We employed the services of a Geneticist and we were given about 4 options. We eventually chose pre genetic testing (IVF) and we have a set of twins and a 3rd child. And they are all AA.

If you don't have the means, unfortunately, you don't want to gamble with the lives of your future children and family. It is a painful journey bringing an SS or SC child into the world. I have met a couple of people who were lucky because of inaccurate genotype results. They have no SS kids. But the decisions are yours to make.
Great comment, Sir.
May I contact you via email please?

Some hospitals actually do mistakes in these tests. The methodology and technology of doing these tests has improved over time too, reducing possibilities of human errors.

Although the post is about genotype, permit me to share my blood group experience.

When I was younger, I was told my blood group was B+ and I carried that information for many years, filling it in many forms. A few years ago when I was about to donate blood to someone in need, I was shocked to realize that my real blood group was B -. It was a big shock to me 😲
