Hello.
I know that ultimately it has to be our decision but I am looking for opinions from others here... I am tying myself in knots at the moment :(
OSCAR test 1:1987, (Trisomy 13/18 1:3866) 14 weeks and 3 days now. Age 39. This will be our first baby following endo laparoscopy.
My partner has a worsening arthritic condition that means if we discovered there was a problem we would terminate.
So my question is: despite a good result did you just decide to have a CVS/ Amnio to be sure? (despite the risk of miscarriage) Did you just have to know?
I have spoken with the FMC in London who seem to be very helpful on CVS info, and with ARC... both have been wonderful...
However the thought of miscarriage for a perfect baby at my age is heartbreaking, but the thought of having a special needs child would be to hard to handle in our situation. Should I test?
Sorry if this sounds pathetic! I am confused and scared to make the wrong decision. Any advice out there?
