Thinking of you xtina and hoping you're through the most of it by now. I'm sorry your boyfriend didn't get to be in there the whole time with you.
I tested with ravgen. In labor now. I’m having an anxiety attack. I can’t stop crying .. I’m 2 cm dilated with contractions every 5 min for 12 hours with a mask on my face alone. Please keep me in your prayers
We get a lot of reports in this particular forum about labs, and the usual complaint is that the woman does not believe the test, not that the science of the test was faulty or the test was done wrong. If the sample got to the DDC in good condition, and these days it always does, you can trust the results. Period. If you've been reading horror stories, check the dates. When prenatal DNA testing was very new (several years ago) we would occasionally hear a complaint. But it often came from really crappy labs (there were some then, probably all out of business now), or from the woman simply not believing the result (but nothing wrong with the lab work), or the guy faking the test (which is I think not so possible now. In the old days, they didn't photograph the guy and his ID, and I think they always do, now.)
Please read my other answer to you, also. You went through hell, and what will help you more is learning what to do about the trauma of what happened, more than assurances about the testing. The tests from the DDC are good, your experience was horrible, and what will help you more than stressing about the test right now is trying to work through the hurt of the bad situation in which you found yourself. You made good choices, and nobody should tell you otherwise, now work on healing your heart and caring for yourself, from being put into such an awful spot.
