Down's syndrome test


We've refused! I can change my mind but told the MW other week I wasn't sure but if I did it wouldn't make a diff & she said I may consider a no then!!

Has anyone else ever refused this test?

My midwife said to me about this at the booking in appointment

She said they do the screening test and if you come back high risk you will be offered a aminocentisis (thingy i cant spell !!!) if if turns out the baby has downs you will then be offered a termination.

So she said if i would not have a termination, then dont bother with the test !

So yep i will be refusing the test too !
