    Which would you believe?

    I had my blood drawn by a lab and tested for gender (Y) chromosone results were positive so that means boy. I had a ultrsound and got mostly girl votes. Its posted in the forum on here. Would you believe the blood or ultrasound?
    I am skeptical of the blood because i have two boys and my youngest is two.

    Its from a company online called prenatalgenetics i went to a lab had blood drawn then it was shipped to them they are in canada. They say that they test the plasma for y chromosone and you have to be at least 10 wks and a previous male preg can throw off results. I didnt find that out til after i got my results. It says 98 99% accurate or something similar to that. You can clearly see my nub but baby head was up a bit. Atomic will you look at it? Its on the ultrasound forum.

    How far along were you when you did the test??

    From what I have been able to find out, previous pg can only interfere with results when it was a very recent miscarriage, not 2 years past.

    Unfortunately, 11 weeks is still quite early for an ultrasound.

    I know of people who were told 100% girl at 20 weeks and still had boys - I'm sorry, just don't want you to get your hopes up and then be disappointed.

    I had blood test done at 8 weeks which said it' a boy. The test promised 95% accuracy. It was in fact a girl (my DD2). I would not trust the blood test again.

    I would NOT believe the blood test. I believe it's similar to Tell Me Pink Or Blue. They had A LOT Wrong for many women.
