Has anyone had the down syndrome test? I heard it's a shot in your stomach and could harm baby. I go Monday for blood work so I need to know asap please.
I will be 41 :/
Short Luteal Phase? I've just started temping because I believe that the reason I haven't had a BFP yet, after 20 months, is because I believe I may have a Luteal Phase Defect.
Things I never thought I'd say... Until I became a mom:
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no, his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me and did something else with an other girl.... and it's 10:51 am now and he hasn't texted me at all. and after he dropped me off I texted him saying what I felt and nothing. I don't know if I'm over reacting or what or what should i do. do i wait until he text me?

I had the test an it was an ultrasound never did I get a shot. they did measurements an things that I didn't understand the names an that's how they tested for down syndrome. the only needles I had was when they did my blood work

@030815, I was a little over 18 weeks when they did mine. tell them unless its a super big concern than you don't want to do it.

all they did was draw like six tubs of blood for mine

No I'm almost 20 weeks pregnant. I'm just going to tell them I don't want it @firstbaby.girl

I had it done. I was scares because of all the things that could happen. it did hurt, but I wanted a real answer cause I kept getting different answers. I still had to take another blood test after that cause they found something else. @030815 did they say you should have it done?
030815·
Yes I think so @firstbaby.girl

is it an amniocentesis?

@030815 they only do the shot if your blood work comes back abnormal. but I wouldn't risk the shot if I were you.... it could cause miscarriage. I personally chose to not do the down syndrome test because I am young and the chances are very slim. also you're blood work has a good chance of coming back as a false positive. Idk I just think it's unnecessary stress to put on yourself because when you get ultrasounds later they will be able to tell If your babe has any abnormalities. sorry long response lol.
