Please tell me stories of successful amnio's

Hi everyone,
I just had an amniocentesis done this morning. And I am currently lying on my back horrified that I made a mistake and I'm driving myself crazy.     It doesn't help that I looked up stories of miscarriages caused by amnio's.     :/ please tell me some success stories.

I was in your place 20 years ago,  Lynnie.  But everything worked out well and now I have a college student.  ;D

Amnios rarely end in miscarriage,  or they wouldn't do them.

Hi Lynnie... try not to stress out. Had one done with my daughter when I was 16weeks, I took 2days off from work to rest and to do as little as possible. And for the next week I took things easy at work just to be safe and all went well will the rest of my pregnancy. My daughter is a healthy energetic 18month old today with no problems. Stay positive, all will be fine with baby and your pregnancy. :)
