Default Prenatal Testing Decisions

Hi, I am new to the blog and am interested in learning how many of you are pregnant and considering having a prenatal test-amniocentesis or CVS?
I will be launching a web-based study mid-summer aimed at learning more about helping pregnant women to make these decisions (not advocating it one way or another). Is this an appropriate blog to post the link? Would there be women out there interested in participating? This is just an inquiry to learn more about where I can find women who are unsure about whether they want to have testing. If you have other internet locations to suggest to me, that would be great. Thanks for your help! Congrats to all of you currently pregnant. Mine are 19, 16 and 12. Barb B

I just recently gave birth and I had the tests during my pregnancy.

I had non-invasive tests done (bloodwork, ultrasounds, etc.) but not anything like CVS or amnio...all 3 of my pregnancies were high-risk and those options were there, but I chose not to do that kind of testing.
