Where and when should i do the cvs test to check for down syndrome in pregnancy? i am 9 weeks pregnant and living in pretoria

Check alternatives: In some parts of the world a blood test (NIPS) on maternal blood can provide the same information as the riskier CVS test. it identifies fetal blood cells in the maternal blood as early as 10 wks. For CVS timing check with your local doc as it varies some with the facility.
