Question about 10 wk DS blood test

I'm talking about the one that also tells the gender of the baby.  I'm having it done on Tuesday and I was wondering if anyone knows How long does it take to get the results?

Got mine back in 8 days.  Very reassuring.

No way I'm having a needle stuck in my belly, if that were the only way I would wait til it was born to find out :)

I had a cvs test done at about the same time. They stick a needle into the placenta instead of the uterus and take villi instead of amniocentesis where they take antibiotic fluid. It can be done earlier, it's still a little dangerous and not all doctors will do it or offer it because they don't know how, but I had results in about 3 days that were 100% accurate. Our baby boy bay all the odds and had no abnormalities in the genetics no margin of error either. We're know. I am so much less stressed knowing. Hope that helps!

Is it the Harmony testing? That tells the gender by the chromosones?
