Panorama blood test?

My Dr recommended me getting this blood test done since I am 35+. 

They didn't have this when I had my DS 5 years ago and I have to admit that I am mostly excited because they can confirm sex at that time as well! Also of course that there is a genetic screening test now that doesn't include a needle into the amniotic sack, ugh. 

Has anyone else done this test? How quickly did you get the results back? They will do it at my next appointment at 13 weeks.

  • I had the harmony version done. It took 11 days! All is good and now I can breathe! Finding out gender so early is fantastic! Reveal party tomorrow with the family

  • I had the verifi version done - they said it would take 14 business days but it only took 6. A nice surprise and I could breathe easier!
  • I had a similar test but it was called verifi. It was offered to me as I'm over 35. They took it at 10 weeks, I received the results 6 days later. I was very worried waiting for the results, they test for many genetic disorders, the wait is nerve wrecking. We also chose to find out the sex at the same time.
  • We did and got the results about a week ago. Loved it. Have a healthy baby girl!

  • Panarama as well, 10 days is what they say. My appointment with my OB is a couple of days after so that should guarantee the results are in.

  • We opted for it to! We didn't have to pay a dime out of pocket, so we decided what the hey! Low risk for everything and a sweet baby girl! I had my blood drawn on a Monday and had the results the following Monday. So pretty dang fast.

  • I had the Maternit21 test done with DS and with this Lo - both times got results back in 1 week. Both times healthy thank g-d and both times a boy! (I love people's reaction when I tell them I'm pregnant AND its a boy - all at 13 weeks. 9 out 10 say how do you know so soon that it's a boy?!)
  • I did Panarama at 12 weeks, they called me 10 days later and told me that they run the blood through a quality assurance before running the test to make sure the test will yield real results and apparently mine didn't have enough fetal DNA or something, so they didn't run it.  I had to get my blood redrawn on thursday and assume I'll be waiting another 10 days.  Booo.

  • I had it done. Mine came back positive for Down syndrome but I'm hoping for a false positive. It took 2 weeks for my results.
  • I had my blood drawn about 2weeks ago for the Panorama test...i called after a week and they said to give it a week or 2 more. Our appt is a week from today and the suspense is intense...my nerves and curiousity is killing me!! I just want to know so my anxiety can reduce and i can really start planning. Im hoping and praying for the best. We're excited to about knowing the sex and knowing our baby is healthy.
  • I had the panorama test done at 11 weeks and got results 9 days later. Finding out the sex with 99% accuracy was so great that early, my husband and I were so anxious to know. We are having a girl!!
  • I had my blood draw for the test this past Wednesday, said 1-2 weeks for results but the xy typing box wasn't checked so we'll have to wait until the anatomy scan next month to find out the sex.
