Fetal Fraction 3%- Female or Fail?

Catherine

I had NIPT testing done at 9wks2days through Maternity21. Everything was negative and the gender was identified as female, but my OB called and said because my fetal fraction was only 3% it could potentially be inaccurate even though test results all indicated conclusive results.

I’m 41 and overweight, so I’m hopeful this is just a fluke, but can I trust these results? I’m in a state where abortion is banned, and if I have to take drastic measures for some reason, I want to know as soon as possible. This baby was a surprise and I already have two boys, so a girl would also be nice. :). Please no judgement.

Thanks!
