First Trimester Screening

Thursday, July 5, 2012
Kaiser Permanente Oakland



Today I had an appointment at the Oakland Kaiser Genetics Department for my First Trimester Screening to test for abnormalities. I had lunch with my mom at Gold Medal my favorite Chinese restaurant in Oakland Chinatown before.

When called into my appointment the ultrasound tech was a bit rude with me and told me I didn't drink enough water to see the baby and take pictures of parts she needed... I waited until they could fit me in between their appointments. While I drank cups of water and almost peed on myself several times.

Finally another tech came and got me and was able to get everything they needed... I asked the tech if she was able to see what we were having and she said she saw the development of scrotum! I didn't announce yet wanted more confirmations although she seemed very sure!

The screening came out to low risk of abnormalities.
