The process involves putting a thin needle into the uterus by way of the 10abdomen and drawing a small amount of amniotic fluid. The fluid taken from the uterus is then tested. This procedure cannot be done without the consent of a physician and it must be done by a physician.
There are some potential risks involved with amniocentesis such as a small chance of harm to the baby and miscarriage. There are other side effects such as vaginal bleeding, cramping, and leaking of the amniotic fluid.
