Due Date Club April 2004:Prenatal screening
2003-09-24
Name: Nidhi



Hi everyone,

Hopefully everyone is doing good!!

I am in 9th week and will have 3rd ultrasound next week because my doctor said my uterus is facing backward. Also the week after she has asked me to go for Integrated prenatal screening (test to find out lower or higher chance of having a baby with down syndrome, trisomy 18 or neural tube defect). I was wondering if anyone of you have backward uterus and/or have thought about going for prenatal screening?

Please advice me asap b'coz I have to make decision soon.

Hi nidhi, when i had my first doc appointment during my 6th week , the doc told me that i have a backward uterus and when i asked her if it is harmful she said it is something like people having blue eyes which is common and we need not worry about that.she also told me that 99% at the end of your first trimester the uterus might automatically turn upwards.But i did not undergo any of the tests you mentioned.
