We want to learn more about how many women are at risk for a rare condition called FNAIT (fetal and neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia). This condition affects a baby's platelets and puts them at risk of problems with bleeding, particularly in the brain.
At the first visit, you will meet with a member of the study team to review the consent form. If you decide to participate, we will collect one extra tube of blood while you are getting your blood drawn for your regular clinic visit. If you are found to be at risk for FNAIT, we will schedule another visit to meet with research staff about 10 weeks after you deliver your baby for an additional blood sample.
