AMA = Advanced Maternal Age

I got a phone call this morning reminding me of how old I am!  My OB office called to tell me I have an appointment with Houston Perinatal Associates for Genetic Counseling & a Level II ultrasound with a possible amniocentesis.  This is all routine for pregnant women over 35.  The ultrasound screening will last about an hour & looks in-depth at the baby from head to toe checking for any abnormalities.  So, it looks we will be finding out if Addy is getting a little brother or sister earlier than our regular appointment on 3/4!
