What are your thoughts?
Our OB offered up lots of tests since my wife is almost 36. She mentioned the Harmony test, the Quad test, and an ultrasound at 20 weeks with a specialist vs. them. I talked to our former RE, and the Quad test was the one they would lean towards.
A couple of friends at work seemed horrified when I mentioned it. They said they would not do it.
I know it's a simple blood test, but that it may create unnecessary fears, so now I am reluctant after being totally fine about it last week.
We really trust our former RE, that is why we sought out their advice on it, but again, now I question it.
Just looking for your opinions...

I chose to forgo the blood tests and go straight to a CVS because it could provide almost the same assurances as an amnio. but could be performed much sooner. The results took a little over two weeks to come in and everything was fine.
I appreciate everyone's responses!
Anyone know how long it'll be for results?
