Hi all - I'm 41 and will be 42 when baby is born, all being well. I've just had combined test results back - on age alone my risk is 1:65, but results have lowered that risk to 1:106
Because this is still high risk they have offered me an amniocentesis, which I really don't want (had 2 previous miscarriages and really don't want to take any risk at all).
1 in 106 sounds ok to me - it's less than 1% risk after all - but what other options are there? Are there any further risk-free tests which can be taken? I will go through all this with the doc tomorrow, but just fretting a bit about it all beforehand...
