My son is 21 months and I wasn't offered the test with him. I'm now 24 wks pregnant and under 35. My Dr suggested I take the test but I decided not too. It seems like a waste of time and you don't need the undue stress of waiting for most likely negative results, which can take a few weeks to get. I opted for the blood test that can determine the same things at 16 weeks. Result: I was negative of course.
Ask your Dr about the 16 week blood test instead, & good luck!
I was so happy to read all of these responses b/c it is so comforting to know I'm not alone. I'm 24 wks along, but I have a 21 month old, and I'm exhausted too. He just started sleeping through the night 4 months ago (if you can call getting up at 5 am sleeping through the night). I'll be using the TV now, through, and after my delivery.
