Thanks to the nestof3 here http://genderdreaming.com/forum/announcements/11840-risk-amniocentesis-3.html I've learned about this blood test.
Here is more info about it Trisomy 21, 18 and 13 | Sequenom Center for Molecular Medicine (http://www.sequenomcmm.com/home/health-care-professionals/trisomy-21/about-the-test/) It provides all the info as the amnio but without the risks.
I'm beyond thrilled!!!! I refused amniocentesis in this pregnancy due to its risks, but I was planning to do it for my next since I'll be over 40.
Hopefully in a year or two it will be available even in the eastern Europe :pray:
