Hi Evie,

Yes, I am going to have the amnio with a great Dr who is very experienced and comes highly recommended by my OB and my sons cardiac nurse who has worked with him in the amnio suite and seen him in action!

Only real concern is my history of irritable uterus and preterm labour so I will be taking three days in bed (DH taking a week off to look after me) instead of the usual 24 hours. Also, the amnio is booked for April Fools Day . Yes I am a bit superstitious!

We had an amnio with our DS who is now 4.5yrs old. That was when I was 33. This time we have decided to not find out the gender - want to leave some things a surprise this time.

Thanks for your support and I am glad your results were so good.

Rachel
