Sneak Peek Test

Has anyone else taken it? I took it and got my results last night... it's a girl! We'll see if it's accurate when we get our genetic testing done in a couple weeks but the company has a money back guarantee on their accuracy.

What is it? A real medical test?

I tried the Gender Experts Ramzi test (you send in an ultrasound picture and based on the location of the placenta or something like that they will say boy or girl). I mean, I only did it for fun and didn’t trust it at all. It was like $10 or something.

I did it my first pregnancy and they said boy. We were team green all the way and found out at birth it really was a boy. I did it again this time. This time I also had a distinct feeling (did not last time, it could have been either or a puppy, I really had no clue or feeling) it would be a girl. The Gender expert test also said girl. Again it was just for fun and I didn’t trust it at all and would never base anything important on their results but interestingly the anatomy scan confirmed they were right - I am expecting a girl. So they are 2 for 2 for me. But I guess they had a 50% chance to be right each time.

EllieT It's a blood test that looks for male DNA in the mothers bloodstream. They say by 8 weeks their test is 99.1% accurate.

I read a few amazon reviews for the sneak peek test but can’t decide if I want to give it a shot or not. Are NIPT tests pretty standard or do you have to otherwise do an elective ultrasound for gender determination?

Interesting. So not too different from NIPT then

It's never been offered to me. I'm under 35. I think over 35 or with a certain history, they offer that type of testing, but it's not standard by any means.  I found out at my 20 week scan.

It only detect the male DNA, not any other genetic markers. It's just a fun thing to do before you find out from the doctor what the gender is.
