the tests are not always accurate.  I have a 3 yr old daughter who has down syndrome and she is the biggest blessing ever.  I was very scared and felt cursed until I held her in my arms.  I will promise that if you are lucky enough to have a baby who has DS, you too will feel blessed beyond what you ever dreamed possible.  I refused all the tests because it did not matter one way or the other.  I already loved her.  good luck
