For more than 2 decades, some supporters of reproductive choice have contended that the manner in which prenatal testing is typically offered to pregnant women, and positive results typically explained, does not adequately ensure informed consent These critics have objected to the descriptions of testing given to women by their physicians and have challenged the type and quality of information women receive about diagnosed fetal conditions. Recent legislation provides the impetus for longsought reforms, but, while we applaud its potential, we think it valuable to acknowledge its limitations
