Real Parent Stories

GeneBaby Changed Their Lives

Real families who discovered critical health information through early genetic screening

Sarah & Michael Thompson family
Gene Found:
MTHFR C677T variant

Sarah & Michael Thompson

Chicago, IL

Emma, 3 months old

"GeneBaby detected Emma's MTHFR variant during newborn screening. Our pediatrician immediately started her on methylfolate supplementation, preventing potential developmental delays. We never would have known without this test."

Outcome:
Started early intervention → Normal development milestones
Jennifer Rodriguez family
Gene Found:
G6PD deficiency detected

Jennifer Rodriguez

Austin, TX

Lucas, 7 months old

"Lucas tested positive for G6PD deficiency at birth through GeneBaby. Thanks to early detection, we've been able to avoid trigger medications and foods that could have caused a severe hemolytic crisis. Our doctor said this information is life-saving."

Outcome:
Avoided dangerous medications → Thriving and healthy
David & Amanda Chen family
Gene Found:
Factor V Leiden mutation

David & Amanda Chen

San Francisco, CA

Olivia, 5 months old

"We discovered Olivia carries Factor V Leiden through GeneBaby screening. This information completely changed our approach to her healthcare - we now know to avoid certain medications and be extra cautious during future surgeries or flights. Our hematologist said catching this early prevents potentially fatal blood clots."

Outcome:
Proactive care plan established → Safe medical management

Recommendations

PAH - c.1222C>T

rsID: rs5030858Genotype: C/T
moderate Impact

Heterozygous carrier for phenylalanine hydroxylase deficiency. This variant is associated with phenylketonuria (PKU) carrier status. While carriers typically do not show symptoms, genetic counseling is recommended for family planning.

Recommendation

Monitor phenylalanine levels during routine newborn screening. Consider genetic counseling for parents. No dietary restrictions needed for carrier status.

MTHFR - c.677C>T

rsID: rs1801133Genotype: C/T
low Impact

Heterozygous variant in methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase gene. This common variant may affect folate metabolism and homocysteine levels. Associated with slightly reduced enzyme activity.

Recommendation

Ensure adequate folate intake through diet or supplementation. Monitor B12 and folate levels during routine checkups. Consider methylfolate supplementation if needed.

G6PD - c.563C>T

rsID: rs5030868Genotype: C/C
normal Impact

Normal glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity. No increased risk for G6PD deficiency-related hemolytic anemia.

Recommendation

No special precautions needed. Standard medication protocols can be followed.

CFTR - c.1521_1523delCTT

rsID: rs113993960Genotype: Normal/F508del
moderate Impact

Heterozygous carrier for cystic fibrosis F508del mutation. Carrier status does not cause disease but is important for family planning and genetic counseling.

Recommendation

Genetic counseling recommended for parents. Monitor respiratory health. Partner screening advised for future family planning.
