Hi ,
I am 10 weeks pregnant and seeing Gyne @ NUH. My down syndrome test is scheduled on 14th weeks of my pregnancy . But when I am looking @ chart "baby center" it says it should be 10th week of pregnancy.
I am really confused. what should be the correct schedule. Any one has experienced the same . My gyne dint advised me for "chorionic villus sampleing though"
Time your travel around any prenatal tests you want or need to schedule. The following tests are usually done during the specified weeks of pregnancy: a first trimester screen for Down syndrome (at 9 to 13 weeks), chorionic villus sampling (CVS) (at about 10 to 12 weeks),nuchal translucency (between 11 and 14 weeks), amniocentesis (at about 16 to 20 weeks), multiple marker screening (15 to 18 weeks), ultrasound (16 to 20 weeks), glucose screening test (GCT) (24 to 28 weeks), and group B strep screening (35 to 37 weeks). (And if you're Rh-negative, you'll need your shot of Rh immunoglobulin at 28 weeks.)
