Here's a great example of why pro-lifers would opt for amniocentesis: My sister found out in a level II ultrasound that her child had markers (indicators) of Down Syndrome, and needed an amnio to discover more about what seemed to be a problem with the baby's heart.
The amnio that was done gave them the information the doctors needed so that a team of surgeons were ready at the delivery of the baby to repair the hole in her heart.
Thank goodness for that amniocentesis. Without it, all of the medical people who needed to be in place for my neice to survive would not have been in place.
Just one more pro-lifer who hopes to rid you of the "horrible perplexities" you were experiencing... not so horrible when you understand better....
