Family Health History During Pregnancy
Expecting a baby? You might be wondering whether your baby will have mommy’s eyes or daddy’s dimples. But your baby will inherit much more than that. Learn about both parents’ family health history to give your baby the best start possible. If either of you have a family health history of a birth defect, developmental disability, newborn screening disorder, or genetic disease, your baby might be more likely to have this condition. Knowing if your baby is more likely to have one of these conditions is important so that you can find and address potential health problems early.
