What are the chances of my baby having a birth defect?
So many factors come into play that it’s very hard to determine your personal odds of having a child with a birth defect. If you are healthy, and following your doctor’s instructions, and there isn’t any history of genetic disorders in either your family or your boyfriend’s family, you should both just relax and look forward to having a healthy child. If there is any history of birth defects in either family, then you should be discussing that specifically with your doctor.
