My wife and I refused an amniocentesis…we were already committed to our unborn child, so there was no point. One doctor was angry and belittled us. Low and behold, our beautiful daughter was born…a gorgeous Down Syndrome little girl that is 19 years old now. She is the most precious gift from God.
Same experience on the belittling front.
Amniocentesis carried a risk of killing the baby (at least at that time). I know of two, perfectly healthy babies that were killed this way because the procedure ruptured the amniotic sac. I think that doctors love to scare patients.
We also said no. We told her that we would take what God gives. Pissed her off. Did not like that we brought God into the situation. More belittling.
BTW, perfectly healthy baby boy was born. Seventeen now. Time flies. Congrats.
Thanks, you too! In 2005 it was a 1/300 chance of miscarriage from the amnio.
