Question 2

My pregnancy is 8 weeks and 2 days today and my early pregnancy scan shows everything is fine with a bpm of 173 and a CRL of 16 mm. However, my TORCH test report showed Rubella IgM 1.65 and IgG 0.30. I have had no fever, rash, or symptoms. The doctor suggested this test because at 6 weeks of pregnancy the fetal bpm was 107, but in today scan it is 173. Is rubella a cause of concern? Please suggest.

Question 3

My wife blood test report shows Rubella values: IgG 4.76 and IgM 0.57. Are these values normal before planning a family? Should we be worried about the IgG value, as we have heard that abnormal Rubella values can cause cerebral palsy related problems in the child? We might have already conceived. Please advise on Rubella values.

Question 6

Hello doctor, I am nineteen weeks pregnant. My rubella IgG test was 1.93 positive during my first trimester. But on my anomaly scan some type of infection is seen. So my doctor advised me for rubella IgG avidity test. What is the purpose of this avidity test if already my rubella IgG is done and my report is positive? Are there any chances of rubella infection again after a positive rubella report? Will this have any problem in my child?
