Hi Nicolee,

congratulations from me too.

I agree with Caro. I had an amnio with my last bub ( now 6.5 months) and I also agree that it all depends on what you wish to do with the results. I never had the CV or the TN as both these tests just give probabilities and only the Amnio gives you absolutes. Like you girls I did not want the will I or wont I based on probability results and wanted to know absolutly, as this was my 4th baby so had a lot of things to consider if there were any problems. I was only 39 by the way.

I stayed in bed for 2 days only getting up to go to the loo as like Caro I agree that the more rest the better for your body to get on with protecting baby and healing the body.

Interestingly my Dr's ( I had 2 perform the procedure) told me to come back for the follow up ultrasound 2 weeks after and she told me if I had any problems or a MC in that time it was their fault due to the procedure and thats how she would write it up and after that it was back to your body..does that make sense.

anyway good luck with your decision. Make the one right for you. t sounds like everyone is on your side.
