Just got a information brochure on amniocentesis (published by the gov of WA) they give a 1:100 chance of miscarriage. So I have a higher chance of having a miscarriage from the proceedure than having a baby with DS. That's a frightening statistic but from everything I've been reading on the Internet, including the stories I have been reading on bellybelly the risk everyone else has been given is 1:200? Very confused.
