My sister sent me these and it got me a little stressed out.
I guess the bottom-line is, with my age (40 next week),
the risk of birth defects goes up, whether we use treatments or not.
Has anyone talked about this with their doctor? Has the topic ever come up?
I go in for my first scan on Tuesday, and was going to bring it up then.
