when should we take down syndrome test
i always had a feeling of anxiety, like i don't want to miss any sign or any chance to know everything about my baby. so i was scrolling and i found a really good article here... https://sg.theasianparent.com/down-syndrome-test It is said in the article, we can test for Down Syndrome from 9 to 15 weeks. The earlier we do this, the better because DS is more common in older women. If we are over 35, having a test at 11-14 weeks is essential. Or if we’re under 35, having your test at 9-12 weeks should be fine. If you have had a previous baby with DS or have a family history, it may be best to have the test ASAP. Doctor may recommend this test if there is concern about the baby’s development during pregnancy. They may also order the test if: - Mother is age 35 or older - has had one or more previous miscarriages - has diabetes, thyroid disease, or other medical conditions - Partner has a history of genetic disorders in his family #justsharing #DS #downsyndrome
