Confusion about Taking NIPT Test
I am 16 weeks pregnant. I recently got my Quadruple test report. Although everything seems at low risk, my doctor suggested NIPT. I'm confused should I go for it or take a second opinion from other doctor as the test is too expensive.

Patau: 1:17861
Neutral Tube: MSAFP - 1.01 MoM
Please suggest.
