I went for my ultrasound this morning. Still don't know if we're having a boy or girl. There was no visible signs of Down's Syndrome. Good!! Good!! Good!!! The doctor did suggest that I have an amnioscentesis just to make sure...which I declined. I'm done...I don't want no more tests done.
I got another pic of baby. The baby's heart was beating 140 beats per second.
Congrats!!! That must be a huge weight off your shoulders.
I probably wouldn't have the amnio done either if things look good on the u/s. It wouldn't change how I feel about the baby, and there is a bit of a risk, so why bother.
