Hi,
I'm in a bit of a quandry over screening tests... The hospital I'm with don't offer the NT screening at the dating scan, only a blood test at 15/16 weeks to assess whether I'm high or low risk.
I really don't know what to do as I'm pretty sure that I wouldn't want to do an amnio if the bloods came back as high risk but then I'd have to spend the rest of the pregnancy worrying.
I suppose I could avoid the blood tests altogether but chances are they'll come back low risk anyway and so then I wouldn't have the worry...
DH is much more relaxed about it and just thinks we should have the blood tests and deal with it whatever the outcome.
Anyone having the same worries...?
Thanks
SPC
