So I keep hearing about a chromosome test to find out the gender, how does that work? I asked my mom about it & she didn't know anything.

@lindsayymarieee, I had the Harmony test rather than an amniocentesis which was just a blood test and my cost was $135 after insurance. It was recommended because of risk factors however

If you aren't high risk most insurers won't pay for it. I had the harmony test at 13 weeks I think and found out she's a girl :). My SO family member asked and they told her around $300 after insurance paid their part. It's like a $1500 test

Make sure your insurance covers it mine was like 1300 and I had to get 11 tubes blood taken from my arm. thank god for insurance

Still pretty pricey even with insurance. I decided not to do it & wouldn't recommend spending extra $$ doing it unless you have a history of chromosomal disorders in your family. Only because shortly after that, you can find out the gender in a routine ultrasound :)

I had the harmony test done. I had to cause I'm high risk. But that's how I found out at 13weeks.

eh... it depends... some insurances won't cover it, some will.. it all depends on if your dr says you need it or not... and there are at least 3 different test. I did the panorama test and there is a harmony test and I know one more, just can't think of what's it's called.

They have a new way of detecting fetal blood through your blood, which shows the babies DNA. (:

It's just a blood test and you can find out the gender sooner. I just had mine done Friday and my Dr said it would take about a week to get back the results. So I am here not patiently waiting lol! @lindsayymarieee

@littlemissrainesmommy, thank you! Does it cost extra if you have insurance?

they draw the blood from your arm... in not sure exactly how they know, but I got one done at 13 weeks and found out it's a healthy baby girl!
