Prenatal genetic blood test results? wait period?

How long did you wait for your Verifi/Harmony/Maternity21 results? I know they say 10 days but did yours take that long? We are electing to find out the gender and sexual aneuploidies if that matters. TIA!

    Mine has taken almost 3 weeks, but I think the norm is 10 business days.  FedEx lost my bloodwork, so had to do a redraw, and then they couldn't find enough fetal DNA so are having to test the other vial.  I am still waiting to see if they could use that sample.  It is SO frustrating!

    I had mine done on 6/17 and got the results yesterday, so 7 business days.  But my results went to our genetic counselor and she called me with them, so that could be why we got them a little faster.

    My Mat21 blood draw was done on 6/12 and I got my results yesterday. So I guess that's 9 business days.

    Eight days, only to find out there wasn't enough fetal DNA in the sample so they had to take it again!  We waited another 8-10 days the second time and the test came back with "within normal range" results.

    Thank you for the responses :) For those who did not have enough fetal blood for results, when did you draw ( right at 10 weeks or further along?) Thanks. GL to all!

    I did Harmony and it was exactly 2 weeks, so I guess 10 business days?

    We did our draw at 11 weeks and we didn't have an issue with not enough fetal DNA. They advised against having it done at 10 weeks for that reason.  

    Good luck!

    I'm glad I saw this post. I just had my blood drawn Tuesday. I wasn't informed of how long it would take, now I have some idea. Thanks!  this wai really does take a toll on the mind.

    I had my Harmony test drawn on 6/24 and got the results today, 7/5. I was expecting it would take longer because of the holiday so I was really surprised when I received the call from the genetic counselor today.
