Pregnant after 35

Amnio

So I had all of these extensive tests doen because of AMA and not sure if I have to still do the Amnio test. Anyone know?

Re: Amnio

  • We did NT Scan then we did Materni21 bloodwork  All were ok.  We did not do amnio.  I did not want one and probably would not get one unless the Dr said it was necessary.

  • We did nt scan it looked great, then did mat21 but it was inconclusive. We opted to not do the amnio because of the risk and this being our last pregnancy.
  • first- you don't have to do anything... it is your choice when it comes to a medical procedure, particularly an invasive one like amnio.  I did not have one based on NT scan results and quad screen looking good... I still probably would have declined due to the inherent risks of amnio.  I wish you a wonderfully healthy pregnancy and baby!

  • We only had the Materniti21 test and the QuadScreen blood draw and said no to the amnio because those other tests didn't show any elevated risks.
