What is the name of this genetic screening test?
I don’t think it’s the NIPT test — it’s a blood draw that measures certain hormones in my blood and they told me it needs to be done between 12-14 weeks and is accompanied by an ultrasound where they measure the folds of the neck and other parts of the baby’s body.
They made it sounds like both the blood draw and the ultrasound need to be done in the 12-14 week time period. The test will give me the risk of the baby having certain birth defects. My office never told me the exact name of the test. Does anyone recognize it by this description? No one mentioned if we would find out gender with this test but I’m assuming we will.
