  • I was going to have it done but when the specialist did an ultrasound, he said I couldn't have one because the placement of the placenta. He said it upped my risk of miscarriage.
    The CVS test has a slighter higher risk of miscarriage than the Amniocentesis, anyways. And whoever performs the procedure should be very well known in doing them.
    But I was told it is pretty painless. Might have some cramping and light bleeding but other than that it shouldn't really hurt.
