Dada-ismb: The New Neuroses
So went to the Doctor last week for the regular, monthly checkup. All was good, but Marni had to take a quad screen . The quad screen is conducted during the second trimester (15 weeks to 22 weeks) to identify pregnancies at a higher risk for Down syndrome, trisomy 18, or an open neural tube defect.
