We did the integrated test -- Nuchal translucency ultrasound and finger stick for blood. That test is done from 10 to 12.5 weeks. We also did the panorama, which tests for Down's, Edwards, and other chromosomal-based syndromes.

If the blood test has any abnormalities they can give other options to further test, but usually the tests throughout your pregnancy should be enough.

Blood test at about 10 weeks and ultrasound around 12 weeks to look at neck.

I had the combined nuchal translucency test and quad blood test which just basically gives you a risk factor.
