You and your baby are in my thoughts, it's a hard decision but personally I wouldn't risk the needle as if she's already at risk of something awful I wouldn't add something else that has a high rate of death into that equation. Sending prayers that everything works out great for your little one. Please keep us posted

I personally wouldn't risk it.....have you gotten a second opinion.....idk where you live but up here we have buffalo children's hospital and they are fantastic with prwgnancies.....if they felt something was wrong or the baby at risk they do more frequent appointments to keep track of mom and baby and they also have an amazing nicu.....my nephew was born 10 weeks early and they were absolutly amazing! I would look into a hopsital pr doctors that specialize in woman and children

I wouldn't he's very right babys don't make it not only does it hurt like hell from what I hear it also goes through your sac which is not good bc then will leak out and baby will die ....my fiance is very against stuff like this and I wouldn't do it either ....it is your choice but I would rather chance my baby being ok in end then knowing I chose to do procedure and it baby dies that it was bc you chose to do it when baby could have made it full term and then they can do all treatments nessesary to baby if its sick ...mom to mom don't do it its not worth risking your babys life even more this procedure is very very dangerous to your baby and will hurt you as well too and possibly more ways than one if you lose your baby ...I've lost one at 27 weeks and it is very hard to deal with ....good luck I hope your babyis ok and makes it through

I don't think I would risk it if I were you. I never allow invasive procedures while pregnant. Good luck that is a hard choice.
