Amniocentesis and Chorionic Villus Sampling (CVS) are invasive diagnostic procedures that allow testing of fetal chromosomes and other genetic disorders. They are most commonly used to diagnose chromosomal abnormalities such as Down Syndrome but they can also be used to detect some inherited genetic disorders in high risk families.
Fetal Reduction is a procedure used to reduce the number of fetuses in a multiple pregnancy, usually to two to decrease the health risks to the mother & decrease the risk of complications to the remaining fetuses. The goal of fetal reduction is to increase the chance of a successful, healthy pregnancy.
If a pregnancy involves 3 or more fetuses, the risks of miscarriage, stillbirth premature rupture of membrane, early delivery, structural malformation & early neonatal death increase with each additional fetus.
Premature delivery affects babies’ lungs, heart, stomach, and brain . It can cause long term health issues in babies like cerebral palsy, intellectual disability, and vision & hearing loss, obesity chronic hypertension & diabetes
Maternal risk like anaemia, gestational hypertension, preeclampsia, gestational diabetes, antepartum & postpartum haemorrhage also increases with multiple pregnancies. It further causes economic & mental challenges to family. Parents of multiples pregnancies are at an increased risk of severe stress and depression
Multifetal pregnancy reduction may maximize the woman’s health and the health of her surviving neonates. It substantially increases the duration of pregnancy, reduces the incidence of premature delivery which in turn has the benefit of increasing the baby’s birth weight and reducing neonatal morbidity & mortality along with shortening the neonatal intensive care stay. The benefits are even more pronounced with quadruplets and other higher order multiple pregnancies.
During an ultrasound your doctor or a skilled technician uses a plastic transducer to transmit high-frequency sound waves through your uterus. These sound waves send signals back to a machine that converts them into images of your baby.
Depending on your stage of pregnancy, scans can:
How is an ultrasound carried out?
The sonographer will put some gel on your tummy and move a hand-held device (transducer) over your skin to pick up images of your baby.
If you’re having a scan in early pregnancy, you’ll need to drink a few glasses of water beforehand. A full bladder helps the ultrasound echoes to reach your womb, giving the sonographer a good view of your baby.
If your baby’s still deep in your pelvis, or if you’re overweight, the image won’t be very clear. In this case, your sonographer may suggest a vaginal scan. This will give a much clearer picture of your baby, especially if you’re at an early stage of pregnancy.
Your first ultrasound, also known as a sonogram, will take place when you’re around 6 to 8 weeks pregnant.At this stage, your baby is very small and your uterus and fallopian tubes are closer to your birth canal than to your abdomen, so your ob-gyn will conduct the test transvaginally to get a clearer picture
Why it’s important
Your ob-gyn listens for your baby’s heartbeat and estimates his age by measuring his length from head to bottom. From this test, your doctor will be able to determine
This ultrasound, called an anatomy scan, lasts 20 to 45 minutes if you’re having one baby, longer if you’re having multiples. Your ob-gyn uses it to assess the baby’s growth and make sure all of her organs are developing properly.You’ll be able to see your baby’s developing body in great detail, but it can be hard for an untrained eye to distinguish the kidneys from the stomach. It’s an emotional experience to see your child up there on the TV screen.
Why it’s important
This is the most thorough checkup your baby will have before she is born.
The doctor will check your
For many pregnant women, their last ultrasound takes place at their 20-week anatomy scan. If you’ve gone past your due date, your doctor may want to keep a close eye on your baby with fetal heart-rate monitoring and ultrasounds to assess the amniotic fluid levels. Other reasons for third-trimester ultrasounds include concerns about the health of the placenta and questions about whether your baby’s growth is on track
Why it’s important
Most Expecting mothers don’t need an ultrasound in the third trimester, but if you’re over age 35 or your doctor wants to closely monitor your baby’s growth, you may get one or more before baby is born.
Other reasons for third-trimester ultrasounds include
You’ll also get a follow up scan if your cervix was covered by the placenta at your 20-week scan. In 95 percent of cases the placenta moves away from your cervix by your due date, but if yours is still covering the placenta (this is called placenta previa), your ob-gyn may recommend a cesarean section (C-section) delivery.
