Gynac wrote ICT test in my list along with other blood tests and i forgot to ask her what it actually is. anyone knows what this checks? thoda tension ho rha hai not gonna lie.
It's the Indirect Coombs Test, basically a simple blood test done to check for Rh incompatibility. If your blood group is negative and husband's is positive, doc orders this to see if your body is producing antibodies. Doesn't take much time, just get it done.
I remember getting this test done while battling horrible nausea, but thankfully it is just a quick blood draw. It is called Indirect Coombs Test, majorly for mothers with negative blood groups. Eat a small biscuit before going if you feel too nauseous during blood tests.
I totally understand how scary all these medical terms and test names can sound when you are pregnant. ICT is just a protective blood test to keep your precious little baby safe from blood match issues. Sending u lots of love, you are going to be fine!
It is just a normal blood test to check your Rh antibody status, dear. Don't worry, your doctor will explain everything clearly once the report comes. It is very routine.
Arey, it is just a routine blood test, nothing to panic about. It checks if there is any mismatch between your and baby's blood group. Most labs do it at a very reasonable price, so just get it done from your nearby lab.
