Thanks for this. And thanks also for the pointer to Scott's guide.
Did you do any testing pre-pregnancy, i.e. for genetic matchup between you and your husband? And did you do any of the fetal testing mentioned e.g. for autism? Wondering about the cost-benefit on those.
He had testing for a genetic disease done due to his family history. I had whatever the slate of "early risk assessment" treating includes - what I remember is a blood test for cystic fibrosis and an ultrasound to look for signs of Down syndrome. All was covered by insurance. http://www.earlyriskassessment.com/
I'm not aware of prenatal testing for autism? We did both take the Baron-Cohen AQ quiz, which didn't think we were particularly likely to have autistic kids, though I'm not sure that's worth much.
