Does an ultra sound at 17 weeks pregnancy show birth defects and is the heart fully developed then?
An ultrasound at this point will show many but not all of the possible defects of the skeletal and major organ systems. The heart has been formed as a four-chambered structure since the sixth week (and before this in another form) and develops in size from then on. At this point, probably less than a third of heart defects can be detected. Certainly the major ones can.

There wont be any. There's many who think being cousins will make you have birth defects but this is not the case. The research show that the risk to get a child with birth defects if you are first cousins is just as small as if you were not related at all. So for second cousins there is no risk. The families where marrying cousins is common and the kids do have birth defects is families who have practiced cousin marriage for generations. Not enough new DNA.

Drop eggs while on birth control my ultrasound showed eggs in my tubes why i am on birth control?
An ultrasound doesn't have the resolution to show eggs in your tubes. Are you sure the report didn't say that you had follicles? Check the report and talk with your health care provider to clarify the situation. You can ovulate on birth control, but I have yet to see an ultrasound report that documented "eggs in the tubes."
