Frequently Asked Questions About Prenatal Paternity Tests
-
Non-invasive prenatal paternity testing is a medical procedure that analyzes cell-free fetal DNA in the mother's blood to determine paternity before birth.
It involves a blood draw from the mother and a cheek swab from the potential father. This method poses no risk to the fetus.
-
The test compares fetal DNA found in the mother's bloodstream with DNA from the potential father's cheek swab. Advanced genetic analysis techniques are used to determine if there's a biological match.
-
Costs can vary widely depending on the testing facility, location, and whether the test is for legal or personal purposes. Contact accredited testing facilities for current pricing information.
-
The term "non-invasive" refers to the method of collecting fetal DNA from the mother's blood, which doesn't require direct access to the fetus or placenta, reducing risks associated with more invasive procedures.
-
Most non-invasive prenatal paternity tests can be conducted as early as 7 weeks into pregnancy.
-
This testing method is generally considered safe as it only requires a standard blood draw from the mother. However, as with any medical procedure, consult with a healthcare provider to understand potential risks and benefits.
-
In most cases, previous pregnancies don't affect results. However, inform the testing facility about any recent pregnancies or blood transfusions, as these might influence the test in rare cases.
-
No; because of the way the data is analyzed, a prenatal paternity test cannot be performed reliably if fathers are closely related (brothers, or father/son).
-
This test is not available for women carrying twins because the current technology can't isolate DNA from both fetuses.
-
Yes, many facilities offer legally admissible prenatal paternity tests. These typically require witnessed sample collection and a chain of custody documentation. Consult with a legal professional to understand the requirements in your jurisdiction.
-
Opting for gender identification is available at an extra cost of $50, as we understand that not all parents are eager to know this information. Feel free to inquire about the gender option during your complimentary and confidential consultation with one of our case specialists by calling: 302.527.1789.
