When you’re pregnant or close to someone who is pregnant, you want to make sure that you are doing everything right to keep the baby is healthy.
Before the birth of your child, some expectant parents may choose to undergo DNA testing to determine if the fetus is high or low risk of having a chromosomal abnormality or to determine paternity. Regardless of their reasoning for considering genetic testing during pregnancy, parent can get a DNA Test before the baby is born with a non-invasive prenatal paternity test or Amniocentesis and chorionic villus sampling (CVS) are the methods used to confirm whether the unborn baby will suffer from any genetic disorders such as Down’s syndrome, Common Chromosomal abnormality: Trisomy 13 (Patau’s Syndrome) Trisomy 18 (Edwards’ Syndrome), Microdeletions – 20 specific diseases – DiGeorge syndrome, Williams syndrome, Prader-Willi syndrome, Angelman syndrome, Hereditary Neuropathy with Liability to Pressure Palsy (HNPP), Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome, Miller-Dieker syndrome and many more.
These tests enable getting samples of the child’s DNA and the type of sample collection method is different as the tests are carried out depending on the stage you are in your pregnancy. If amniocentesis is used, then the sample taken from amniotic fluid and which can be performed anytime 14th and 20th weeks of pregnancy.
Chorionic Villus Sampling (CVS)
On the other hand is an invasive testing procedure that requires a sample of chorionic villi to be collected from the uterus. This test involves a needle being inserted into the mother’s abdomen or through the cervix by way of the vagina to collect the sample. A doctor’s consent is needed before CVS testing can occur, so it doesn’t pose any kind of risk to the mother or baby.
