What is SneakPeek Clinical?
​
SneakPeek Clinical is an early gender DNA detection test offered to women starting at  6 weeks into pregnancy. The genetic test gives you the first step to connect with your baby before you are able to see the exciting clear images from your ultrasound scans. The full service includes an on-site phlebotomist that draws a blood sample in the comfort of the ultrasound studio, and then returns the sample to SneakPeek Labs for processing. The laboratories offer the fastest turnaround times in the industry, with a choice of receiving your results the same day the sample reaches the SneakPeek Lab.

How does SneakPeek work?

SneakPeek utilizes the natural process of shared fetal DNA circulating inside the mother’s bloodstream. Our PCR technology has the ability to detect the presence or absence of the male Y chromosome in the blood sample starting at 6 weeks into pregnancy. If the Y chromosome is detected then the baby’s gender is male and if it is not detected then the baby’s gender is female.
