@curlykarla, o wow that's kinda messed up, especially since you asked them and can't believe insurance won't cover

My midwife told me it was 98% accurate if it was taken at the right time with the correct gestational age, funny how we're all told something different lol

I did it and all they did was an ultrasound and blood work.

mine was also just blood test and ultrasound. I think unless it comes back positive that's all you need

@shortizzie, @ash_505 my Dr said I have to cause if the baby is born with anything she has to report it

shes right, there is a huge false positive rate so we decided not to do it.. we figured if it was positive, i would stress myself out so much so we figured it was not worth it and it wouldnt change anything for us anyway if something was wrong with baby.. A lot of the time, they can tell if something is up from the 20 week scan and if they noticed something on that, then we would have agreed to it..
