Amnio or no?
Should I get an amnio?
I’m 17 weeks pregnant and got low risk results on my NIPT, 1st trimester quad screen, and NT ultrasound.
My 2nd trimester quad screen results came back low risk for everything except for Down syndrome. It came back as elevated risk 1 out of 130 risk.
I’m not sure what to do since the NIPT came back as low risk and I know that’s 99% accurate. I also know these are all screens versus an amnio is 100% for sure as it’s diagnostic.
We would terminate the pregnancy if it is determined that the baby has Down syndrome from the amnio.
Do I trust the blood tests or just get an amnio? And those who have gotten an amnio, does it hurt?
