Serum Screening Test Results

Just called the doctor's office for the results of my maternal serum screening tests:

1. "No elevated risk" of open neural tube defects (they don't do a number for this one, as they do for Downs and Trisomy-18). Yay, folic acid!
2. Downs: 1 in 1,400 risk ("normal" is 1/270 or lower).
3. Trisomy-18: 1 in 47,103 risk.

I'll take those odds. Now on to the June 28 ultrasound. Bring it, obstetricians!
