[|Human|] Dear Doctor,I am arunjit banerjee from kolkata...i am 34+ and my wife is 34 also. We are planning for her pregnancy by next year May.. We are a little worried as age is slightly on the wrong side as she came to know from her relatives...if that is so what is the precautions that we should take ...and how can we possibly take precautions against risks...thank you
[|AI|]  Hi, I think you should go for a first trimester screening which consists of some blood tests.  Also do a nuclei translucency scan between 11 and 14 weeks. These can rule out any congenital abnormality in the child. Due to increased age, chances of congenital abnormality increases in the baby. So, also do a second trimester screening and a level 2 scan at 18 to 20 weeks. Check sugar levels and blood pressure at regular intervals during pregnancy.  Hope I have answered your question. Regards Chat Doctor.
