I'm wondering if anyone else had the NIPT test while pregnant with twins? I had it during my last pregnancy with my daughter, but I heard it's not accurate with twins. Where it costs so much I wanted to see if anyone else had it and if it was accurate for them. Has anyone experienced this?

About a month before I found I was pregnant I started suffering from panick attacks and really bad anxiety where I now and again feel as if I can’t breathe like my breath is taken away and I can’t take a full deep breath. My mum suffered from them around my age and I’ve managed to manage it up to now with breathing ...

Has anyone had this whilst pregnant? I am only around 9 weeks and I’ve read it should be avoided but I’m currently not feeling very well, been in bed since I got Home from work, had over an hours sleep, I’m warm, really really bad gas which makes my tummy feel not right and sickly feeling.
