I had this test 4 years ago having 2 boys and just moving house wanted to know the sex, had one test they said it was contaminated,resent a new test said it was defiantly a boy as my blood showed high male hormone levels,I now have a 3 year old beautiful GIRL,the company I bought it from was a reputable company in England when I claimed my refund they told me they were dropping their association with pink&blue as they had so many complaints and wrong results they believed it to be a scam.

How can the providers of this service possibly ensure due diligence given that they sell the test over the internet? How can they ensure that the stupids out there who only value one sex or another aren’t going to use this test to gender select? Ultimately the only ones who suffer from those who are ‘too stupid to have a baby’ are the ones who are born (or not) to these idiots.

Lina – there may of course be many people who are unaware of the poor evidence, potential errors or the possibility of fraud. I am just doing my bit to help people make informed decisions. If you want to go with the test after realising it has the characteristics of a fraud, then, well, that is your decision.

What’s the harm in a test like this to satify someone’s curiousity?

Yes I agree that for those who use something like this for the purpose of arborting a baby in some cultures is disgusting but if anyone providing this type of service ensures due diligence on who they sell their service to then I don’t see the harm.

It is a novelty product and shouldn’t really be used to determine your future of your family but shouldn’t be outlawed either.

There’s a variety of different tests out there including urine based ones that claim 80% accuracy at 6-10 weeks. I can’t vouch for them but if you are too stupid to understand that the test will only work for 80 out of 100 people then you are indeed, too stupid to have a baby!

Don’t buy the test if you don’t like the statistics!

In some places, people kill the girl child after knowing the sex of the baby. I really hate this, the new child has the right to be born.

The government makes law for preventing the geneder test, but it happens illigally. So untill our minds are not changed, nothing is going to change.

All i want to say is, we should not test the gender of the new child, and if a girl found, we must not kill her.. She needs to be born, let her se the Beauty of this world created by God.

I fear that after reading that comment that you either work for pink and blue or are too stupid to be allowed to raise children.

I took the test after having it recommended to me by a friend (it gave an accurate result for her and she was happy with it). I used it at 8 weeks pregnant, and the results were correct. I was glad to know and it seemed fine to me!

Hi everyone! After two boys we desperately wanted to know the sex of our third child so purchased the Pink or blue. Was informed it was another boy so fully prepared ourselves. Went for a 4D scan yesterday and was told that its a long awaited “girl”! Have heard lots of speculation about Pink or blue and now think its a con as they never said my card of blood was contaminated!
I shall be handing them my birth cert for a full refund! If they are still trading LOL.

OK – that’s a bold and worthwhile suggestion 10x the fee for the inconvenience etc. One of the dafter reasons for the test that I’ve seen is that some parents like to start decorating a room for a boy or girl and need to know as early as possible, rather than waiting for the 20 week scan.

All of which goes against the number of women who tell very few people that they are pregnant until the tricky 1st trimester is out of the way – ‘just in case’.
