I just left my doctor appointment. And today the doctor asked me if I would like to do blood test and ultrasound to check for Down syndrome..she says no harm will be down to the baby for this but I just want to know if anyone else has gotten this done also??
I done it and it came back positive, I was so scared and nervous and we were referred to a specialist. We later got the news that our son was perfectly healthy. The test gives alot of false positives so if you do get it dont stress if it's positive til the specialist sees you @destini23
I did it and they just took my blood and told me a month later if my baby had anything wrong with him then 7,weeks later had the anatomy scan to confirm the gender and to check and make sure he was growing right
I did this , I think it's great they told me while I was there the baby looked healthy but they still took my blood to make sure
I got it done not because If my baby had down syndrome I wouldn't want him but because if he did I could have extra time to prepare and learn how to take care of him better.. Every child is a blessing. If you want to have the test done that is your decision wether you decide to or not there is no wrong choice!!
I still got the anatomy scan as they check everything and her organs but not the blood tests.
Yeah j was h sure to go through with it or not backyard either way I was going to keep it also..thanks you guys :)
I decided not too...because no matter what I was keeping the baby...the blood test is not always right and I didn't want the added worry and stress with my pregnancy...my Dr agreed with me.
I got it done at 12 weeks basically they draw your blood and do a full anatomy scan of the baby thru ultrasound it takes about an hour its completely harmless to you or baby and it's better to know if anything is wrong now then find out later.
I had it done. got the blood test as well which gave me results on the gender early as well! I recommend it
