Genetic Testing






There are routine genetic disorders that doctor's test for when you are pregnant. You can expect to have blood drawn between your 11th to 13th week of pregnancy for your first trimester screening. During the first trimester screening doctor's test for trisomy 18 and trisomy 21 (Down Syndrome). At week 19 my husband and I were fortunate to find out that my first trimester screening was normal. There was a 1:5100 chance of down syndrome. I fell fortunate.
