Im 28w and wouldn't do it. They told me my little girl does have an issue with one of her arms(its short) and they wanted to check but i said no. Nothing the test shows would change my mind so why put the baby or myself threw it. However the way the Dr explained things had her issue been more sever i would have thought about it ONLY bc if it showed something they could be more prepared at the delivery. But since everything else in my ultrasound are good and she's growing perfectly my Dr didn't push me to get it.

i agree completely i won't do it and thats going to cause big problems with me and him and his family. i won't get one i just need him to understand no matter what I'm keeping it and he should feel the same.

I never did it and yes all my babies came out healthy. You shouldn't let some force you to have an abortion no matter the reason if you don't want it.
