03-10-2008 - Blood Test - Downs screening + AFP HappyMy mood while writing this blog:
Happy



So I got my blood test results back and I'm pleased to say that the risk of baby having Downs Syndrome is 1:10,000 so very low risk and the AFP for Spina Bifida came back Normal. I know that the test doesn't have a very high accuracy but it has put my mind at rest. I was particularly worried about the Spina Bifida as I do have a family history and I didn't start taking Folic Acid until I found out I was pregnant - 5 weeks.

I hope that everyone and their bumps are happy + healthy :)
