Phew, & at *only* $275US, wot a bargain for all those who 'just need to
know'!
I notice that there are no testimonials included along the lines of "Its
great to know the gender of our baby at 5 weeks, as now we can have an
early termination if its not the sex we want" (yes Im being super
cynical, but I have to wonder if its a big seller in China & India).
I quote from the site:
*I was able to surprise my husband with an early birthday gift this
morning when I checked my e-mail and got the results. Surprise!*
Finding out the gender of yr baby via email - OMG!
I can just hear George Orwell saying smugly "I told you so"...
I have no idea whether the claims are true - "Here's how it works: Your
baby releases its DNA into your blood plasma. Because DNA between
different people is so similar, the only way to distinguish baby DNA
from maternal DNA is if the baby is a boy and has a Y chromosome. If the
Y chromosome DNA is present in your maternal blood sample, it's a boy;
if the Y chromosome DNA is not present, you're having a girl. *200%
Money-Back Guarantee!!"
*go figure!

Hi all
Did anyone else see the article in today’s Adelaide Advertiser with
information on this? What do you think about it?
http://www.pregnancystore.com/baby_gender_mentor.htm is the link to
the test, and it claims to be 99.9% accurate as early as 5 weeks after
conception, using a maternal blood sample which you collect yourself,
and then send to a lab. They claim that the y chromosome can be found
in the maternal blood if you are having a boy, wouldn’t that require
some crossing of the maternal and foetal blood? Isn’t that what we
don’t want? Hmmm, not convinced on this one, but someone, please explain!
