Patient's question:
At 30 weeks of pregnancy, I had a follow-up 4D ultrasound, which revealed that the fetus's hand and foot development was delayed by one to two weeks. BPD: 81mm, HC: 287mm, AC: 262mm, Femur: 53mm, Humerus: 48mm. The doctor recommended prenatal diagnosis. Now I'm almost 31 weeks pregnant. Can I still have an amniocentesis and NIPT?Doctor's answer:
Do you have regular menstrual cycles? Did the early ultrasound show fetal growth and development consistent with gestational age? It is recommended to coordinate with the treating doctor. If the doctor recommends prenatal diagnosis, it is advisable to book it promptly. Generally, Level 3A hospitals can perform umbilical cord. In addition to timely treatment with 4D ultrasound, friends with the condition should maintain a positive mindset to face the disease. Only in this way can they reduce the patient's immunity and strengthen their belief in fighting the disease. At the same time, they should pay more attention to their own dietary care, primarily based on light foods, and avoid cold foods to prevent setbacks. They believe that this will definitely drive away the 4D ultrasound.
