Hi ladies! I was just wondering if anyone had the Maternit21 test done and had a different result at their anatomy scan? I've heard of it's a boy it's pretty much 100% sure but for girls sometimes they miss the Y chromosome in the blood. Just curious!
Re: Anyone get wrong gender on Maternit21?
2) the test is 99.9% accurate. I have never heard of the sex being wrong.
Mine was correct 100% on both. I'd be shocked if I had a girl at birth. I mean we already got the 3D ultrasound of the manhood
This time, my doctor did panorama and do not have the results back yet.

We were told we were having a boy based on Maternit21 results. At our 20 week anatomy scan we learned we were actually having a girl. (And 20 weeks later she was still a girl!) Sequenom (the company that makes Maternit21) offered up very little as a reason for the possible discrepancy—they wouldn't even admit to the potential for human error.
After digging in to the info about the test a little more, my doctor and I discovered that the sex chromosomes/gender portion of the test is tested in a different way from the other chromosomal tests and is a newer addition to the set of info that is relayed to the patient. My doctor also had a few other patients who had abnormalities with this portion of the test and those turned out to be non-issues.
In summary, yes—overall, it's a very accurate test and yes—it's possible to have the gender results be inaccurate.
With my next pregnancy, I'd still feel very confident with the nearly all of what Maternit21 screens for but we would wait til the 20 week scan to confirm gender.
