I am currently 10 weeks with my rainbow baby, can someone please explain when the downs and Edward’s syndrome tests happens and how long results take.

I feel like I really can’t relax until after this.

I was told I would hear in 3 days if it was bad news, but otherwise a letter within 2 weeks. They did the test at the 12 week scan

I think you can get it done anywhere around 11-13 weeks. my results took almost a week to come back because they had to ship my blood to a facility in NC or somewhere to get tested.
