A test to find out the sex of your baby

Knowing the sex of your baby seems to be your only concern since the announcement of your pregnancy? Thanks to a team of American researchers, your wait could be shortened considerably.

They have indeed proved that a blood test could allow you to know the sex of your baby as early as the 7th week of pregnancy. Of course, this is not the only benefit of this blood test as it could also detect possible genetic abnormalities.

But while waiting for this analysis to be everywhere, you still have the possibility to try old wives' tales to know the sex of your baby a little bit in advance!

My ob sent me to an fetal medical doctor office. I also had an anatomy scan on the baby which everything can out normal. Since no y chromosome was detected the baby is a girl ❤️... I was so scared at first but once they did the ultrasound and everything came out normal it gave me a big relief. I'm going to have an amniocentesis on the 16th just to make sure the baby is 100% clear... I will give an update when the results come back in. But don't worry everything will be OK... It might not be the baby it may just be us... And if it is I'm fine with that as long as my baby girl ok.

My insurance covered mine. But depending on your insurance you may have to pay out of pocket for it.

Hello everyone, i wanted to know if anyone could tell me how accurate their NIPT test was with the fetal sex, compared to the anatomy scan and the birth of their baby. I just got my results and all the chromosomal test were negative but the fetal sex is consistent with me having another baby BOY. Excited but wanted a girl. I had my test done on the 4th of this month i am 14 weeks and 4 days so had the test done at 13 weeks and 1 day. Should i be changing my baby registry items to reflect a boy or wait until my anatomy scan on the 22nd of September. Thank you in advance.

Just wanted to give everyone a heads up... Those of u who want to know the sex of ur baby sooner can get a nipt test done and it also test for like down syndrome but it also tells you the sex of the baby too. ❤ hope that makes some mommas happy.. I'm going to do it. Some this with my 3rd pregnancy and they just draw blood they don't go into the womb at all. 😁
