Both partners same genetic carrier

Hi everyone. My husband and I are planning to TTC #1 around the end of this year so we recently did a generic carrier screening test just to make sure there’s nothing of concern prior to TTC and I’m glad we did because it turns out we’re both a carrier for the same thing.

We have an appointment scheduled in June with a genetic counselor to discuss our results further and what it means for how we approach having a baby. I’m trying not to get ahead of myself or go down any internet rabbit holes on the topic but these results are definitely disappointing.

Has anyone else been in this position?
