Amniocentesis is a procedure in which amniotic fluid is removed from the uterus for testing or treatment. Amniotic fluid is the fluid that surrounds and protects a baby during pregnancy. This fluid contains fetal cells and various chemicals produced by the baby.

Although amniocentesis can provide valuable information about your baby’s health, it’s important to understand the risks of amniocentesis — and be prepared for the results.
