Common questions about DNA early gender test
Want to know your baby's gender as early as possible? Here's what you need to know.
How early can I take the test?
From 6 weeks of pregnancy (which is 9 weeks from your last period). If you test too early (before 6 weeks, even by one day) results may be inconclusive. For best assurance an early pregnancy scan can confirm, or we recommend waiting until week 7-8 without a scan.
When will I get my results?
Results are emailed to you within a day of your blood sample being received at the lab.
What if the result is wrong?
DNA Early Gender test has 99.9% accuracy. In the rare event of an incorrect result, the laboratory offers a full money‑back guarantee only if the baby’s sex at birth is different from the sex predicted by their test.
This guarantee applies as long as the sample was taken at or after 6 weeks of pregnancy and the test was performed according to their instructions. A scan is therefore recommended for accurate pregnancy dating.
Is this test safe?
Completely safe. It’s a standard blood test from your arm—no risk to your pregnancy. This is the same technology used in NIPT genetic screening tests.
How does the test work?
During pregnancy, small amounts of your baby’s DNA circulate in your blood. We take a simple blood sample and analyze it for Y chromosome (male) DNA. If detected, you’re expected to have a boy. If not detected, you’re expected to have a girl.
How accurate is the SneakPeek test?
99.9% accurate when the test detects male DNA (boy result). Female results are also highly accurate but have a small possibility of male DNA being missed. If your result is inconclusive and you were 6 weeks or over at the time of the first draw, we’ll offer a free retest.
Happy stories from Parents
Real experiences from those who trust our care.
The staff are great and the service is impeccable. Lauren the sonographer is empathetic, personable and so kind which made our 8 week scan a wonderful experience
I’ve visited Flowan a few times over the last few years for various reasons and every time the service and care is outstanding. There are clinics much closer to me I could opt for but travel out of my way to Flowan simply for the service.
Felt safe and comfortable at this clinic! Very good service, would recommend!!
We came for an early pregnancy scan. Such lovely, professional staff at the clinic. Explained everything super clearly and were so friendly! Would really recommend.
The team are so friendly and helpful, really excellent service. We asked not to see the gender of the baby but for it to be part of the surprise package and we couldn’t be happier!! Such a lovely experience seeing our baby
