Natera panorama results! Boy#3?

Question

Hey all! 
So we got our nipt results back last night, this is our 3rd and last so naturally I was hoping for a girl. But outside of hoping I really thought I was havign a girl! 
Of course I looked up accuracy (bcz 99.9% isn't enough when you're in denial 😂) and Ive read a few times that although it's more common to have a false positive for girl (due to low y chromosome count in early pregnancy not being detected) that if you've recently had a boy there could still be y chromosome present, therefore showing its a boy when it's not.
Anyone have this happen?
To be clear I LOVE the idea of having all boys, I LOVE him already and I'm pretty sure he has a name 😍. It's just bcz it's my last pregnancy...don't judge. 🤦

Answer

I’m sure I would be the same way! This is our first so I’m really 50/50 for what I want. Question - how long did the Natera results take? They took my blood Wednesday so I’m anxiously awaiting! I’m preparing for a 2 week wait though.

Answer

I don’t know yet and have to wait for another 9 weeks to find out, but I’m pretty sure I will react exactly the same if this is a boy. I’m so convinced it is a girl and we also already have a boy.

Answer

I’ve known for 2 weeks I’m having a girl and I still am in shock and disbelief. Even tho I know it’s quite accurate. I need to see it on my next ultrasound to believe it😂

Answer

So I’m assuming this is NIPT in general, I think the one in my office is called the Clari-test. I remember asking my OB about it because I just didn’t believe the results and didn’t want to get my hopes up and she said it’s 99.9% accurate and that it is more accurate than an ultrasound by a long shot 😂. Now if it’s something more along the lines of sneak peek test then I’d say it’s more likely it can be wrong because I’ve heard of so many of those being wrong.

Answer

You are not alone! This was me 3 weeks ago 😂 we are only having two kids and our first is a boy. My husband and I were both convinced this was a girl. When the results said boy i cried. Then, like you, I googled the chance it could be wrong and read many stories. 
I had an ultrasound Monday at 14w and they saw the boy parts so it’s pretty certain. But part of me is still like well maybe that was a finger or something cuz he only had one arm up by his face. 😂 I’ve come to terms it’s a boy and I’m happy and he already is named, but I’m still keeping a small tiny hope in the corner it’s a girl haha 🤣
