I had my amnio on 8/17, go to the doctor this Thursday 9/1 and will hopefully have results..But, the genetics department at UAB where i went has a new test called a FISH test, which is kindof a snapshot of what your amnio results w/ be w/ a 97-98% accuracy rate and i got those results the day after my amnio and all that came back great, I had an amnio because i will be 39 when baby born....great news though will be having another boy,,,,so excited....my first son is 3, so i will have my two boys and will be set, no more after this one. Good Luck to you, all will be fine.

my doc said that the reason it takes a couple of weeks is because they grow the cells from the baby that they harvest thru the amnio in the lab. It takes a couple of weeks for the cells to grow and then they are tested for all the varying genetic disorders, i.e., down, cystic, trisomy 18...and so on.

My amnio is booked for September 8th, I was told it would take three weeks for the results. I live in Ontario, Cananda. From what the posts I've seen your results seem to arrived much faster in the States. Was anyone told the s_x of their child during the Ultra sound?

They asked me if i wanted them to guess because I had my anmio at 15 weeks, 4 days (which is a little early). She said boy and she was correct.
