Also Annie is right. False negatives are way more likely to occur . I also read that same persons complaint about ravgen on this site when I was pregnant that’s one of the two that I was referring to and I don’t even think it’s true . I promise I went so far as to call the labs that ravgen uses to get blood samples . I was insane !!! If you want to private message me feel free . I know your freaking out but it’s pointless . Ravgen is amazing
It’s very accurate . They were 100% correct with my daughter . I was worried my entire pregnancy and ruined the whole experience bc I didn’t believe the test .
I think we did have one troll who posted first that she got false results from the DDC, and then that she got false results from Ravgen. She used the exact same wording each time, except changed the name of the lab. This is what happens when you attempt to do medical fact-checking on the Internet from anonymous source's posts.
Just don't overdramatize, you are fine, get the DNA test done after the baby comes and then forget about the question forever.
Hi, we have had a couple of trolls write in and say that all prenatal testing is in error, but have never had a reliable report of an error from Ravgen. Go ahead and test when the baby is born with a clear conscience.
It sounds (from the fact that you used a toothbrush) like your boyfriend doesn't know you tested him. Therefore, he is (reasonably enough if he is facing all the costs of fatherhood) asking what any unmarried guy should ask for in this day and age, proof positive that the baby is from him.
Did you test both guys? If you got a positive for your desired father and a negative for the other guy, it's hard to see what you are worried about. There was a discussion on this site about false negatives and "false positives" recently -- some women had heard of false negatives from cheapie so-called DNA labs, but nobody had ever heard of a false positive.
If your conscience won't let you alone about having slept with two different guys, see a counselor or therapist. A lot of the time women who won't believe lab results are basically just frozen in the guilt or ambiguity of having had unprotected sex in short order with two different guys, and it has nothing to do with genuinely disbelieving their medical results. The anxiety just transfers there, because it's easier to catastrophize about. Resist the anxiety on its own terms, in other words, face what is really bothering you about the situation and deal with that. Your transferred (fake) fear that the best lab in the business did something wrong that no lab ever does (that is, a "false positive") will fade away, when you address the cause of your stress.
