this isnt CVS its an amniocentesis

No, it is a CVS procedure. I invented the technique in the 1980's, performed it recently and filmed it.

@kassbass123: And you can go get a hysterectomy or vasectomy. You and your retarded child are making things worse for the future of our species. I'm not "making fun" of anyone I'm stating a fact. When you're 60, and you're still changing your child's diapers, my commentary will make a lot more sense.

@shandyspoon your a terrible person and deserve to be eliminated from our gene pool yourself you idiot! my son is the most amazing little man on earth! how dare you make fun of people who have never done a mean thing to anyone!

[hketsun]

Shouldn't it be done under aseptic technique?

[bessyakabossy]

my biology book says this is amniocentesis not chorionic villi sampling :S

@ShandySpoon: Down's syndrome IS negative. It's a genetic mutation and the child born is a financial and emotional burden to society for the rest of its life. The Downs person will never be independent from its parents, it will always need them, no matter how old it gets. People aren't "just people," they are contributors to the genetic destiny of our species and every person's contribution counts. Genetic defects should be eliminated from the gene pool.

I have a feeling a biology class somewhere in... Portugal, Porto is watching this video...

@ShandySpoon I'm sorry, but who are you to judge what people may do? Yes, those with down's may be more loving but these tests can't tell you the severity of the condition. Those with down's are likely to have other conditions like autism which also comes in different severities. If someone discovers they have a down's pregnancy then it is up to the individual. No one takes the decision lightly! What people need is a little less judgement from those that aren't in that person's position!

@ShandySpoon people have the tests for other reasons too . lose a child threw an illness ,watch there brothers or sisters or any family member or friend grieve then see if you still feel the same. Watch as your child gets worse and know there is nothing you or doctors can do about it .
