30 weeks - high risk to have a baby with cystic fibrosis Posted: 09-20-07 23:20pm
So both my doctor and the perinatal place
called me today, but I was at school so I
have no idea what they want me to do. I
have to wait till they call back tomorrow.
I'm guessing my doctor's sending me
because I'm at a high risk to have a baby
with cystic fibrosis. Does anyone know
what sort of test they're likely to do? It
seems kind of late to be doing tests since
I'm already 30 weeks, but I'm not sure. Is
there any tests that they do this late in
the game? I'm just wondering since I
haven't talked to my doctor about it yet.

If they haven't already they can do
genetic testing to determine if your baby
could have it but other than that I don't
know of anything they can do.
So I am guessing you have already heard
back from your Dr. What did they say? How
was the outcome?

No I haven't heard back from them yet. I
keep missing the calls because I'm not
here. I'm playing phone tag with the
nurse.
They've done all the routine genetic
testing, at like 12 weeks, and all those
tests came out perfect. So I'm not too
sure. I should hear back tomorrow for what
they want me to do.
