A nurse in a provider’s office is caring for a 20-year-old client who is at 12 weeks of gestation and requests an amniocentesis to determine the sex of the fetus. What responses should the nurse make?

Your provider will schedule a chorionic villus sampling to determine the sex of your baby.

You cannot have an amniocentesis until you are at least 35 years of age.

We can schedule the procedure for later today if you’d like.

This procedure determines if your baby has genetic or congenital disorders.
