Nifty v Harmony Test

Any thoughts on these tests? I'm 12 weeks and am expecting my NT NHS results in the next week but I think I want to have further tests due to my age.

Looking online it seems the Nifty test is more accurate and cheaper than Harmony, are am I reading it wrong? I can only get an appointment for the Nifty test 1.5 weeks from now, is 14 weeks too far?

I feel so rotten at the moment with all day sickness I can barely think, any advise anyone??

I think they're almost the same, so I would go on distance (for convenience) or price if you have lots of options nearby. I've opted for Harmony, but because it's the closest available to my house. If it had been Nifty, i'd have done that.

14 weeks sounds fine to me :)

Both very similar, I'd go with whatever is best value and convenience.

I had the Harmony Test with DS1 and the Panorma test with DS2.

Harmony is the most expensive with an extra cost if you want to find out the gender of the child.
Panorama and Harmony tests are both sent to the US and results come back within 10-12 days
There is another one that is sent to Hong Kong and that takes 3-4 weeks to come back. Is that the Nifty one? I'm not sure.

I'd go with cost and convenience tbh as there isn't that much of difference in the price.
