    Like others, DH & I decided to have the scan done, purely to see bubs and get a new little picture...I wasn't at risk for a downs syndrome baby at the ages 26 & 29, and we had both decided that even if the tests came back with a high chance we wouldn't have terminated. Some ob's generally don't offer it unless you are over the age of 35. But it is a pregnancy test provided and anyone can have it or request it. The test is just a simple blood test and a scan (NT measured)...if the results are high, the next step and only if you want it is amnio.

    I'm so glad that you have a wonderful GP to help you through your journey...it helps enormously.
