My wife is 5 weeks pregnant, and during a general blood check up, her report showed a high MCHC value. I would like to know if this could cause any problems for her or the baby. Please guide me on this issue and suggest any necessary treatment or precautions. I have attached the blood report for your reference.

A slightly high MCHC is common and not usually harmful during pregnancy . No major impact on baby if other values are normal.

Dear Doctor, please have a look at my report. I am worried and would like to know if everything is normal or not. I have a twin pregnancy.

I have attached my report. It mentions notching in uterine arteries, and a resistance index of 0.59 on the left side and 0.51 on the right side. Could you please explain what notching in the uterine arteries is, and whether these values are normal?
