[quote=Anonymous]As others have said, it’s important to be on the same page as your partner with respect to how you would respond to a prenatal diagnosis. I had two daughters at 32 and 34, both healthy. Conceived a third immediately at 36 but learned at 12 weeks that there was a problem, possibly genetic but in any event likely to result in fetal demise at some point. We decided to TFMR. It was really hard but we both felt it was the right decision. About six months later we conceived our third daughter, who is a healthy 15 month old. We did all the genetic counseling and non-invasive prenatal testing, healthy lifestyle, etc. There aren’t guarantees. I’m glad we kept trying, though, because our baby is such a joyful addition.[/quote]
