i would definitely do some more research & don't feel pressured into doing either a CVS or amnio.

fwiw, this time i had a 1:291 risk of DS. the scan was pretty good & it was the bloods that pushed the result (just) into high risk. the dr who did the scan was very good at explaining everything to me & said the most important thing was not to panic as the results weren't really that bad. i spoke further with my GP & he was very consistent with what the Dr had told me. i chose to have a CVS because that is just me - i HAD to know and i would have been very uncomfortable waiting to find out. my DP thought it was a little crazy given that the risk of miscarriage was actually higher from having the procedure than the risk of DS (something else to consider).

when we went in for the CVS the doctor said to me that 'we're pretty sure everything is ok but you're here just be 100% sure?' which summed it up beautifully for me - that is what i needed to do to be comfortable. ETA: i rested for the rest of the day after the CVS & took it pretty easy for 24 hours. i was perfectly fine (so far & it was a little over 10 weeks ago now i think) & didn't have spotting or any bleeding etc.

i think it's very wrong for anyone to be making you feel pressured into having a procedure that comes with its own risks (although apparently largely dependent as well on the person actually doing the procedure).

do whatever you & your DH feel is the right choice for you.
