Down Syndrome screening

I am currently at week 8 of my pregnancy and need to decide whether want to do Down Syndrome screening during the next gynae appt. I am 30 years old. Understand that below 35 consider low risk, and some mummies will not opt for the screening. Still not sure whether I want to do it? If yes, should I go for Oscar or other more precise and expensive one? Need some advices from those who have gone through this stage. #1stimemom #advicepls #pregnancy

I’d recommend going straight for Panorama if your finances permits. It’s more expensive than OSCAR but offers much higher accuracy, plus you get to know the baby’s gender with almost 100% accuracy as early as week 10! Some moms who opted for OSCAR ended up going for Panorama eventually as the OSCAR results were not ideal - eventually the Panorama results were all clear and they were put through the emotional stress for nothing and you can’t put a price on that!
