Question about newborn screening
Hey mamas, has any moms had to repeat the newborn screening test for their babies? Tuesday was my baby boy’s weight check and the pediatrician told me he had hemoglobin c trait and that there was this things called “galactosemia”. they had me go to the lab to get the newborn screening redone and said they’d call me when they got the new results. today i got a letter from Emory Newborn Screening program here in Atlanta, GA and it says that my baby’s results are abnormal/borderline and that they need to do the test again asap, i’ll be calling the pediatrician Monday however the test was already redone Tuesday (June 4th)
Question here is, any other mommas been in this situation before? i’m a ftm and don’t know what to do ... i feel so lost
