Took the NIPT (QNatal through Quest Diagnostics) one week ago, now anxiously awaiting results.
Just wondering, for those of you who've already gotten your results, how were they given to you? My doctor uses an online "patient portal" and I've had other results released through that.
Did your docs call? Post online? Other?
Also, for the sex of the baby--I didn't have the option to opt in or out of knowing it when I got my blood work done at Quest. Is the baby's sex right there in the mix of all the other results, or is it separate, or...?

hi! I took mine last Monday and as you, am anxiously waiting!! I took the MaterniT genome and I will only get a notification that my doctor received the results. Will discuss them with him on my next appointment. The sex of the baby is revealed in the same results

@michiking,
Oh my gosh, does that mean that if your next appointment is a month from now you don't get them until then??
I hope your next appointment is soon!
I actually have my 12 week appointment today but since I don't think results are in, I imagine it will be kind of routine. Just listen to the heartbeat, etc.

My Doctor’s office uses a patient portal too. I didn’t see any technical results, just a note from the doctor that said, “congrats, no genetic mutations detected!”

my doctor called and left a message that everything came out fine, she said to call back for the gender.

This is an example from what i saw online. So looks like Y chromosome is right in the mix of all results

I told the nurse while I was getting my blood drawn that I didn’t want to know the gender, so she said she would not upload it in the portal, and that she would call. Seven business days later she called me and said everything was normal. I asked her to call my sister in law and tell her the gender since she’s planning my gender reveal on Thanksgiving Day.

When I had that test done with my first they posted the scanned in papers that were sent to the doctors. It didn’t just lay out if things were high chance or low chance, or gender.
They also called about 2 weeks after the test and explained everything and then asked if I wanted to know gender.

You can call and get the results and let them know if you want the gender or not and if you want them to put the gender in an envelope. I’ve got to call this week and see if mine are in or not. They say it takes two weeks and I had my bloodwork Friday so I’m just being hopeful it’s in this week.

I just got my results Friday and the nurse called me to tell me everything was fine and asked if I wanted to know the gender. We’re having a girl!

I just got a call this morning and she just said everything was normal, and asked if I wanted to know the sex. It was SO hard, but I said no.
