You are free not to take the test, but I think we would have taken the 0.3% risk to see if it is really Down's. While children with Down's can be gorgeous, I am not up to the task.
We did get the test for it for my two; can't recall if we did any extra ones. Believe we skipped them, at least on the 2nd.
I've come around to maybe change my mind since then, however I'd need to be in a very good position to be able to be up to the task.
I truly wouldn't have been, the ASD diagnosis was hard enough - and made magnitudes harder due to the manipulations of the "autism industry". Do this, do that, or else - you only have one chance for an early intervention, so better throw your own life away or you'll be a bad, bad parent.
