http://pregnancypuke.com/ ?p=11
What is the AFP Test? You can choose to have a blood test for AFP - alpha fetoprotein - when you are between 16 and 18 weeks pregnant. The goal of the AFP test is to tell you whether there is a high risk that your baby has Down’s syndrome or spina bifida. AFP is one of four possible "markers" that your blood can be tested for to give information about how your baby has developed. When Can the AFP Test be Administered? The AFP test MUST be done between 16 and 18 weeks of pregnancy to give accurate results. If you are unsure how far along you are, a dating ultrasound might be the best first step to determining when you should take the AFP.
