My doctor spoke to me about a blood test he can do at my next doctor's appt. that will see if my baby is at a high risk for down's syndrome..etc.. I have been told that a lot of these test come back a false positive result and that then you have to go through counseling and your baby may not really even have a disease. Does anyone else know anything about this and should I do this or just wait and see how it is when it is born?

Oh yeah, and when should I begin to feel the baby move? Not major movements, just small. Because I am 4 1/2 and can feel what seems like little bubbles ( I guess you could say) in my stomach. Is this the baby or just my belly?
