Question

Combined screening test- what happens if it's too early?

Hello, first ever question- hopefully someone knows the answer!
So I had my letters through from the hospital this morning to confirm my appointments. First one with the midwife and then two weeks later for the combined screening test. My issue is I'm not entirely sure of my dates (I said that on my form.) I think that by the time of my screening test I'll be around 9 weeks. I've read that the blood test can happen from 9 weeks but what if they scan and find that I am 9 weeks, when they can only scan for Down's syndrome etc from 11(?) weeks? Will I be asked to return for another scan or will that be my only chance? Worried they'll leave it if I'm only 9 weeks and then something could get missed.
