About LinkBacksI'm 7wks. 3days and just met with the high risk doctor for the first time. I explained that after having 3 m/c I'm really considering doing a CVS and wanted to know what he thought. Obviously, he said it's my decision, but he recommends doing the ultrascreen first and only doing the CVS if the results aren't good. I know the CVS does have some risk, but it's so much more definitive and from what I understand it can detect even more abnormalities than the ultrascreen. I'm so torn. Any advice or experiences with either of these tests would be greatly appreciated!

I 100% agree with CassAnn.....if you feel that you are at high risk for miscarriage, don't do anything that would increase the risk.

I agree with the others.. I had 8 m/c & when I had my 1st peri appt he was adamant that no unnecessary procedures be done esp cvs & amnio since I said we wouldn't terminate for any reasons
