各位妈妈,准妈妈们大家好,

我现在已经怀孕2个多月了,昨天去看了walking clinic 的医生,说需要我去做:

Glucose,Creatinine, Hemoglobin,W.B.C.count,Rubella and Prenatal:ABO,RhD,antibody screen 的测试。

请问有没有姐妹知道这些测试是做什么用的?我现在还在寻找family doctor,所以有问题不知道要怎么办.谢谢大家.
 
Yes, you should.

Glucose: test for blood sugar (血糖)
Creatinine: test for kidney functions (肌氨酸酐)
Hemoglobin: test for anemia (贫血)
White Blood Count: test for white blood cells (白血球)
Rubella: test for German measel (风疹)
ABO/Rh D grouping and antibody screening: basically this is an integrated blood test for antigens in the mother's blood that might cause harm to the fetus.

Whoever ordered these tests (gave you the requisition form) should be able to explain to you what they are for.
 
yes, you need to do these tests. A blood test and a urine test will cover them.

For example, if your blood sugar (glucose) level is higher than normal during pregancy, you might need to control your carbohydrates (rice, bread, suger,etc.) intake. If you are diabetic 1, you need insulin injection.

Creatinine is a chemical natrually existing in our body. Its test tells if your kidneys function well. Your kidneys have a double duty during pregnancy. Not only does it response to get rid of your own body waste, but also your baby's. It could be toxic if waste is unable to be excreted.

hemoglobin test gives a value of your hemoglobin count. Hemoglobin is made of iron which is the functioning element in each red blood cell for carrying oxygen. If the count is low, your doctor might prescribe you some iron pills.

Rubella test is to see if you are immune. If you are not, and you get this viral infection during pregnancy, there are risks of premature labor, miscarriage and birth defects.

Rh test is a “blood type” test. It is looking for a certain antigen on mother’s red blood cells. Most people have this antigen, they are called Rh positive. A few don't, and they are Rh negative. If you don't have it, and your baby has it, you will go through a whole medical procedures to protect the fetus. Since your immune system will initiate antibodies to attack the baby's red blood cells and in some severe cases, it could cause fetal death.

These information might sound overwhelming to you. However, the point is to be aware of the importance of these tests.
They are there for some reasons and you can not overlook them. Hopefully, it helps you understand these tests.

 
Thank you so much for the information.
这下我就放心了。 给两位好心妈妈加声望了:)
 
不客气,别觉得这里的医生什么都不管,到时候该做什么检查都给安排得好好的,什么也不用操心。你可以请walk-in的医生给你推荐一位妇产科的医生,以后就直接跟妇产科医生联系。
 
wiki is right. prenatal examinations and care are well established in Canada. The health care professionals are very depending on the system, which on the other hand creates an impression that they are not working well.
anyway, I am glad I can help. Thank you for adding 声望!
