Midtrimester amniocentesis. Subjective maternal responses. 1981

B Dixson, and T L Richards, and S Reinsch, and V B Edrich, and M R Matson, and O W Jones

Studies, through questionnaire and interview, of couples who elect or decline midtrimester amniocentesis demonstrate that both groups cope well with new decisions surrounding this procedure. The pregnancy monitored by genetic amniocentesis does not appear to receive special status as viewed by the parents, nor is the developing fetus placed in a special category during the pregnancy.
