Parenthood begins with the greatest unknown - the miracle of pregnancy - where a quiet little person grows into existence beyond the sight and reach of anyone else.
Science can really help us on this journey, but it can often turn amazing experiences (like seeing your baby on the screen) into an emotional nightmare.
You deserve to have a happy pregnancy, and only you can decide whether the test will help you on this journey.
Sometimes I think medical professionals treat screening tests too lightly, and don't understand the emotional weight of the decision involved for us. It opens up the road to a 'decision' many of us didn't know we had to make...
Its just one big learning curve...
