That’s sadly true. I wonder whether anyone else here has had this experience: Even in your mid-30’s, the OB-GYN offers screening for DS. I was told “so that you can terminate” if needed. When I said I wouldn’t do that, they said I didn’t need the screening then.

So, it must be very common. (Remember how the Palin family was treated.)

Thank you for sharing your family’s story, too.

It happened with my little girl. I was 37. My doctor, who I had been with for a long time, insisted that I have it done...it was for his legal protection and I understand that. I got it done, but I wouldn't have aborted her had they found something.
