They usually check with an NT scan and double marker blood test in the first trimester. I was so stressed before my test that I ended up craving and eating a whole plate of golgappas right after leaving the lab!
Don't worry, it is just a routine blood test and a special ultrasound scan done around week 11 to 13. Your doctor will explain everything, just stay calm.
I completely understand how overwhelming all these genetic tests can feel. They do a routine scan and blood test, and sometimes NIPT if needed, so try to take it one day at a time.
They do an NT scan and blood tests. My MIL was so surprised because they didn't have all these tests in their time, but it's very good for our peace of mind.
