A 2-MHz probe is recommended for pregnant women who are overweight. The newer EchoHeart 5-MHz transvaginal probes aids in the detection of fetal heart tones (FHT) early in pregnancy (6–8 weeks) and for patients who have a retroverted uterus or throughout pregnancy for FHT detection for women who are obese.
Requires a maternal blood draw. Based on DNA of fetal origin circulating in the maternal blood. Testing can potentially identify fetal aneuploidy [55] (available in the United States, beginning 2011) and gender of a fetus as early as six weeks into a pregnancy. Fetal DNA ranges from about 2–10% of the total DNA in maternal blood.

[1] Testing blood for hCG results in the earliest detection of pregnancy. [2] Almost all pregnant women will have a positive urine pregnancy test one week ...

Circulating cffDNA can be detected in maternal blood between the 5th and the 7th week of gestational age, [12] however more fetal DNA is available for analysis usually after 10 weeks, because the amount of fetal DNA increases over time. [13] cffDNA, RNA and intact fetal cells can all be used to assess the genetic status of the fetus non-invasively.
