genetic testing - not sure if this is the right board
So my SIL (husband's sister) found out that she has 2 genetic blood clotting disorders and now the whole family is supposed to get tested. DH has not gotten tested yet, and I'm not sure how we go about that. Is this something I should bring up with my OBGYN (especially since we started TTC #2 this month), or should we go to a regular doctor (we don't have a family doctor). I'm confused on what to do. Thanks.

i would talk to your doc to see if she thinks there are any tests that you should get done...

I would bring it up to your OB and they will probably refer you to a geneticist.
