Has anyone done this? Any recommendations? Positive or negative feedback?
DH is adopted and has never met his biological parents, so we don't know his family medical history. We've talked about seeing a genetic counselor prior to trying to get pregnant, but haven't done extensive research yet and wonder if it is really worth the effort. I'm due for a physical soon, so I plan to talk with my PCP. (As well as internet research, obviously.)
TIA!

Re: Genetic Counseling
We didn't, I wasn't really worried.
When I got pregnant, I had a slew of bloodwork done that would reveal a bit of information and we opted for the Nuchal Translucency screening (NT scan) when I was 12 weeks (you get follow up bloodwork around 18 weeks). I'll likely need to have an amnio for #2 based on my age.
That is all we did (which is more than what most of my friends have done).
