I have my appointment next week. I was told they ask a lot of questions at the consultation. The appointment they take a lot of blood and study the sono for visual abnormalities. When is your appointment ?

I wouldn't think any of that stuff would be hereditary

I'm going because I'm 36. That's the same day as my consultation. I'm sure it's just a precaution. You and baby will be fine. Not all conditions are passed down

I did. They ask you a lot of questions about your immediate family's history, they tell you wat they think baby might be at risk for, offer generic counseling, draw labs, and do an ultrasound. I didn't do much except for sequential screening and the ultrasound because we were low risk
