Yeah it is actually... I think actually going through pregnancy and childbirth can change your mind about these sort of subjects.


I remember turning up at the hospital for an appointment when I was pregnant with child1.. I dint really know why I was there and they explained it was for blood tests to see if there was any chance she could be Downs or Spina Bifida... you then had to wait for aged for the test results, THEN actually get the baby tested. I told them it just sounded like a big worry test .. they asked me if I would terminate if my baby was Downs Syndrome and I was just horrified.. I'd felt her move, heard her heartbeat and already felt super protective of her. I told them absolutely no way! And they just sent me home without having the tests done. I just can't imagine allowing somebody to remove my living baby from my body and killing it. The thought of it shocks me tbh.
