Down syndrome test

Hi mummies, Is it too late to check for Down syndrome test at week 13? That’s the earliest appt date I can get from KKH.

Nope. I took NIPT at 22nd week and got the result in the 23rd week. The only reason the earlier is better is because legal termination of pregnancy is 24th week and they want you to know earlier to make a choice.

No. It's not too late. Btw smoking doesn't cause downs syndrome. It causes brain damage.
