Hi, I would suggest you to go for NIPT test rather than amnio. Also, consult a genetic medicine expert. In amnio test there is 0.5% chances of miscarriage as they detect the cell of the baby through your stomach. NIPT is quite safe because that is just a blood test. Also, NIPT is more expensive than amnio. However, there is no need to worry.

As you have already taken the amniocentesis test it is now best to wait for the results. In most cases when most test as normal the amniocentesis also comes clear. It is just as an abundant caution that the test is asked for. Please try and relax as the test can take a few days to come back with the results.
