Quad Testing

[dazhavu752]

I had my quad screening a couple of weeks ago and everything came back normal. I have had two ultrasounds, and both times the baby measured at two weeks later than they though. So this Friday ( the last ultrasound) they finally changed my due date. They recalculated my quad screen and now it is abnormal. With a 1:22 chance of baby having downs. Could this at all be wrong due to them changing my due date? None of this was explained too well by the nurse who called me.

I'm not sure about this either...this is really something that a genetic counselor rather than your ob or a nurse would be able to answer best.  Call your ob and ask for a referral to their genetic counselor.

Im not sure, but i suggest you call your OB and speak to him/her and have them explain it to you so that you understand it better.  Im a nurse myself and i never speak to the nurse at my OB's office, i always request to speak to my doctor who is suppose to have a better understanding than the nurse and should be the one explaining it to you, what if you have questions.  Take care and just give them a ring.
