23andme.com is a site that offers at home DNA testing. About 10 weeks after you send a tube of your salvia to the lab, you receive percentages on the likelihood of contracting certain diseases or conditions like cancer or diabetes.
Landsdowne resident Cecily Kellogg used the site after she lost her twin boys during pregnancy five years ago. She says she was misinformed about symptoms of the condition and contributing hereditary factors.
Now she contributes to a new section of the site for moms and moms to be. In this pregnancy section you can choose to have your DNA analyzed and contribute the results to the site's research pool or you can simply contribute to the blog to help researchers and mothers to be learn more about pregnancy health.
"It's very hard to actually do medically testing on pregnant women because it's not safe. This way you can contribute to the medical community's knowledge," Kellogg said.
Getting your DNA analyzed is pretty pricey. The kit runs about $400.
But Kellogg says it's worth it because now she can see conditions she and her daughter are at risk for, and help other women who she says are often left in the dark.
