@loveanddatadriven I think you mentioned you were trying these. My peekaboo test is ready to take tomorrow and I’m so torn! This will be my last baby (#3). I have two boys and I’m not sure I’m ready to give up my girl dreams forever.
Curious if anyone else has tried these tests ... if they were accurate and how long it took to get results.
Thanks in advance!

I just did my SneakPeak last week! I think they've made the blood collection much easier in the last year. They have a lot of bad reviews on Amazon too regarding the finger prick and not getting enough blood. They now offer an arm snap thing instead of the finger prick. It was super easy. I was mostly stressed about making sure everything was sanitized and clean so I didn't contaminate the sample with any male DNA. I can't speak to if it was accurate yet, but I have a feeling it is (test said girl). I guess time will tell!

I’m also paranoid about tainting the sample. I did the test in my laundry room because it’s the least frequented room and I have a house full of Y chromosomes LOL (a husband, two sons and a male cat!)
anyway- I have one more meeting then I’m going to bring it to the fedex drop box. Will update everyone when I get results! I’m going to guess they won’t have enough dna because that’s just my luck

The Sneak Peek arm test (not the finger lancet) was sooo much easier and seemed much more sterile. I paid to have results expedited. I just sent the kit in today and expect results some point early next week. I’ll let you know if they were consistent but from a user-friendliness point, the Sneek Peak arm test was sooo much better. The blood just came flowing LOL

I’ve recently developed cold feet on taking the test until my first U/S (this Tuesday). With all of my health struggles, it’s been hard to get excited about a gender guess test until I know everything is otherwise normal.
so this is crazy… Sneak Peek came back for me today and said it’s a girl! So, I’m kind of back at square one but holding out hope the second test is right because the collection method was much cleaner. I did the one that attached to your arm and the blood goes straight into the test tube (no contact) vs. peekaboo where I had blood dripping underneath my fingernails etc.
Any data analysis you can do to help shed light on which may be more accurate? Lol

We did SneakPeek with our first in 2019. Back then the earliest time was 8 weeks (it's down to 7 weeks now). I waited an extra week and sent it off at 9 weeks exactly, and results came back within three days. They were correct! I did the finger prick method and had no trouble getting enough blood and didn't have any pain. Definitely less painful than a paper cut.
I have another SneakPeek test at home that we ordered back in February (TW - loss) and I plan to take it at 8 weeks this time.
I just took the Sneak Peek test today and mailed it off. It should arrive by Saturday or Monday, with results on Monday or Tuesday.
Peekaboo came back. It’s a girl! 💕 So happy. I get my NIPT results next week to cross reference. I’m looking forward to the “sex of the baby” thread.
