Default Re: New test for Down's syndrome

I agree with you about the triple test HollieP, it is so inaccurate that there is little point really.

I can't say I wouldn't end a pregnancy for any reason, I have to say if I'd found out I was going to have a severly disabled baby then I don't know what I would do, as I would have to consider the whole family's needs.

Appletree, you shouldn't feel guilty about having CVS, you did what was was best for your family at the time. I didn't mean to sound like I thought it was always a bad thing to do, I just knew I would never have had one for that particular purpose because, given my OH's families experience with his uncle and my own mother's experience in caring for people with special needs I knew we would cope just fine and have all the support we needed.
