: Karin-
:
: Thanks a lot for the info. I did have a high
: fluid level with my PRS pregnancy so I'm
: sure that will be watched as well. It's good
: to know that the micrognathia was spotted
: early so that should be detectable, however
: we too have a family history of weak chin.
: Oh well - we'll have to wait and pray.
:
: Perhaps, I'll contact you again after the
: test.
: Thanks again - Marisa

: I was screened many, many, many times with
: the
: high-risk OB, but not for PRS. The
: micrognathia was noted on the first
: sonogram, at 11-13 weeks for the nuchal
: translucency, and on all subsequent ones,
: including the level 2 sonogram. We
: discussed it, but small chins run in my
: family, and they didn't think to check for
: more. I have friends who had a cleft in the
: family, and they tried hard to find it on
: the sonogram, but they were not able to find
: it. Unfortunately, both our kids ended up
: with PRS.
:
: Oh -- and we also had a sidebar below about
: how several of us had polyhydramniosis when
: we were pregnant, which was almost certainly
: a side effect of the cleft. Basically, for
: me, all of the signs were there, but we
: never had PRS in the family and didn't pull
: the pieces together. Also, they were
: looking for other things, and there were
: family histories for polyhydramniosis that
: misled any attempt at diagnosis.
:
: I'm happy to talk about this further by
: email if you want to know more.

: Hi all-
:
: Sorry I haven't been on in awhile. If you
: don't know me - my 3rd son was born with PRS
: 4 years ago and is doing great. It appeared
: to be an isolated case since there was no
: Sticklers and his brothers are fine.
:
: I found out we are expecting again - yeah! I
: am scheduled to have a level 2 ultrasound
: with a high risk OB at 20 weeks to check for
: PRS but I was wondering if any of you were
: screened in the past and how they did the
: screenings? Specifically, what type of
: ultrasounds and how many did you have to
: have?
:
: Thanks and I pray all your little ones are
: well-
