Jack or Jill Test

glitzandglitter · June 2011

When I went in for my NT scan I was offered a Jack or Jill test. They apparently take your blood use it to determine if you are having a boy or girl. I am supposed to find out in about a week what we are having. Did anyone else get this done?

Yep right near Houston.

Oh wow, I've never heard of that before. How exciting to get to find out this soon! Is it supposed to be very accurate??

I haven't heard of this. That's interesting, though!

wow I wish they offered this around me

Never heard of it before but neat-o! If something like that was offered I would probably jump all over it.

It's supposed to be 98% accurate.

Too bad they don't offer this in more places! I would love to do it! Good luck to you!

Thanks! I wish they offered it more places too. I will post next week when we find out Big Smile

I'll be curious to see of it's accurate! I will not be doing it because we decided to be team green.

My friend recently did this (also in Houston) and it seemed so funny to me because she called a 1-800 number, entered a code and heard "It's a girl!" Not the typical way of finding out, but still fun!

GL!

I think most of Texas has it available to them (although I am in the Houston area). I thought some other states had it but it seems like maybe it's just Texas now.

I'll be doing the test because it's free with my NT scan but I have to wait until July 11th for that!

Boo! I'm in TX and wasn't offered this as part of my NT scan. *sigh* Guess we will have to wait til August.

I'm in TX and have never heard of this test! We lived about 90 miles away from Houston when I was pg with DS, and even though we are farther away now, we're still in TX. Of course I didn't have the NT scan with DS and won't with this one, either, so maybe that's why I haven't heard about it. Plus, I think I'd rather find out while being able to see it on the u/s instead of just getting a result over the phone.

Thanks! I wish they offered it more places too. I will post next week when we find out

did they say if it was covered by insurance? if not how much it costs?

I feel like since it's not medically necessary it might cost a LOT!

The number off the top of my head is like $360, I remember hearing some where. But like OP responded, it's usually offered free with the NT scan.
