Nipt says girl, but ultrasound says boy!

[W232323]

Hi! Just wanted to get an opinion from this community, i recently got an NIPT test that says my baby has a high chance of Turner's Syndrome(which 99% affects only girls, with a mortality rate of 99% during the 1st trimester). So i went to get a second opinion from another ObGyn, the ultrasound looks like a boy!

Please chime inon whether based from your experiences, this ultrasound result is that of a boy's or a girl's.

Many thanks!

Great news OP, thanks so much for taking the time to update us! I hope the rest of the pregnancy is smooth ❤️

Ahhh I am so pleased to hear it is good news and things are going to be okay for you all.

Thank you for updating us, I hope you and your wife can now enjoy the rest of the pregnancy and you get to welcome your healthy boy when he is ready.

All the very best to you all

Lovely news!

Thanks for updating, so pleased for you both.

Just found this thread and read the whole thing before coming to OP’s update. I actually have tears in my eyes from happiness! Really pleased for your OP, that’s fantastic news! Congratulations!

Wishing you and your wife a healthy pregnancy!

I decided not to have Nipt when I was pregnant because after researching it I was shocked by the false advertising (99% accurate! It's not) and how terrible some of the accuracy rates are for the lesser known issues. And misuse of statistics.

I can't find the best article I read, if I do I'll post it, but basically if you are told your baby probably has Downs, there's approx an 80% chance it's correct. But Pataus is only correct 50% of the time and Edwards 40%. And rarer issues can be less accurate than that.

I actually think it's an unethical test for the rarer issues. There are loads of cases of people worrying unnecessarily about results and even wrongly being advised to terminate.

Amazing news - a happy and healthy rest of pregnancy and beyond to you all

Great news. Pleased for you both.

Wonderful news for you all

I've never heard of a harmony /nipt being wrong so guess it can happen

So very glad you have had good news. What a relief.

Only sorry that you had to read responses from halfwits on here.

Fantastic news, so happy to read your update! Best wishes 🍀

So happy for you both I've been keeping an eye on the thread
