I personally believe that the Prenatal tests are important. In a mother, they can determine: - Blood type - Anemia (low iron in blood) - Gestational diabetes or other health conditions - Immunity to certain diseases - STD (sexually transmitted disease) - Cervical cancer In a developing child, prenatal tests can identify: - The chance that a baby has certain birth defects or genetic problems - Certain types of fetal abnormalities, like heart problems - Treatable health problems that can affect the baby's health - Characteristics of the baby, including size, sex, age, and placement in the uterus Some of them are routine tests include things like checking urine levels for protein, sugar, or signs of infection. Other non-routine tests are recommended only for certain women, especially those with high-risk pregnancies. These may include women who: - are age 35 or older - are adolescents - have had a premature baby - have had a baby with a birth defect — especially heart or genetic problems - are carrying more than one baby - have high blood pressure, diabetes, lupus, heart disease, kidney problems, cancer, a sexually transmitted disease, asthma, or a seizure disorder - have an ethnic background in which genetic disorders are common (or a partner who does) - have a family history of mental retardation (or a partner who does)
