[quote=Anonymous]35 is not that old. I was told (don't know if this is true) that it's used as the cutoff for AMA because when amnio was first developed, that's where the risk curve for DS and the risk curve for amnio triggering a miscarriage converged, but we have different screening tools now. That said I'm pregnant with my last at 36 and I'm irrationally terrified that there's something wrong with the baby, or there will be a birth injury, or something. Not due to actual data, just me being anxious.[/quote]
