(Secure your booking with a deposit. Settle the balance on the day of your visit).

Our SneakPeek early gender test is a simple blood test that confirms the sex of your baby from as early as 6 weeks’ gestation. It uses the same technology as NIPT testing, whereby foetal DNA from the mother’s blood sample is analysed and the presence of the male chromosome (Y) is either found to be present or not present.

Please Note:

  • We are only able to provide services to customers over the age of 18
  • If you opt for a test without a scan, there is a chance that your pregnancy may be at a different stage to what you expect, or that the pregnancy is not viable. Hey Baby 4D therefore advises that a dating scan be performed ahead of the blood sample being taken
  • The video recording has no audio capability

About SneakPeek

SneakPeek Clinical by Gateway Genomics is the only clinically proven early gender DNA test that lets you discover your baby’s gender months ahead of schedule, so you can prepare for your little one and share with family and friends! The test uses non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) to look for male Y chromosomes from a small sample of your blood. If male Y chromosomes are found, that means baby is a boy. If none are found, baby is a girl. SneakPeek is the leading provider and most accurate early gender DNA test on the market, trusted by over 500,000 mums and obstetricians.

Frequently Asked Questions

How Does SneakPeek Work? While every person has her own DNA in her bloodstream, a pregnant woman’s bloodstream also contains DNA from her unborn child. SneakPeek looks for male chromosomes in a small sample of your blood. If male chromosomes are found, that means baby is a boy. If none are found, baby is a girl. SneakPeek is accurate at 6 weeks into pregnancy.

What Is The SneakPeek Process? At SneakPeek Labs, a test process called non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) is used to analyze cell-free fetal DNA. Starting with a small sample of your blood, plasma is separated from whole blood by centrifuge, and extracted cell-free fetal DNA (cffDNA) is analyzed for Y chromosomes, which are found only in males. The SneakPeek test is sensitive enough to find even a single Y chromosome, giving you confidence in your results.

I’ve previously had a boy. Will that skew my results? Clinical studies have shown that fetal DNA clears from mum’s bloodstream between a few hours to 2 days after birth.

I’m having twins. Can SneakPeek determine fetal sex for each one? In the case of identical twins, if male DNA is found, then both babies are boys. If no male DNA is found, then both babies are girls. For fraternal twins (or more!), finding male DNA will confirm at least one baby is a boy, but cannot distinguish if the second is a boy or girl.

Do hormone disorders such as PCOS affect my results? SneakPeek is a DNA-based test, so hormones do not impact results.

Do blood thinners affect my results? SneakPeek looks only for the presence of Y chromosomes and is extremely sensitive and accurate. No blood thinners or other drugs are known to impact SneakPeek gender results.

Is this test safe? SneakPeek Clinical is a non-invasive prenatal test (NIPT), and it’s safe for both mum and baby.

How quickly can I get my results? You will receive your result within 5-7 business days of your blood draw.* Expect your result email between 4-8pm Pacific Time the day your sample is received by SneakPeek.

Are results guaranteed? SneakPeek Clinical is the most accurate early gender test on the market. If your test result does not match the gender of your newborn, you’ll receive a full refund.

How is my privacy protected? We know your DNA information is personal. To protect your privacy:

  • SneakPeek tests only for baby’s gender. No data is gathered about disease states or other health-related information.
  • After the test is run, your DNA sample is disposed of by a professional chemical management company in compliance with federal standards.
  • SneakPeek never shares your results with anyone other than the email address you provide. Where can I learn more? Visit www.sneakpeektest.com/uk.

We’ve used Hey Baby for an early reassurance scan, gender scan and today a 4D scan. I couldn’t fault any of these appointments, the front desk are always warm and welcoming and the technicians in the room are reassuring, friendly and the whole experience is genuinely very enjoyable. Our 4D scan was incredible and I was so impressed with the images captured and didn’t realise how many we got digitally afterwards as well as the videos. They were having tech issues today but we only knew because they’d shared this with us which meant there was a slight delay to being seen but this was no problem to us, however they were very generous due to the appointment being a bit late and provided us an additional print free of charge which we were not expecting and really appreciated the gesture despite the issue being out of their control (and also resolved very quickly). We also purchased a heartbeat bear today and again were very impressed with the quality and sound. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to book private scans, well worth every penny.

This is the second pregnancy we have used Hey Baby for 4D scan and I can’t fault them. Great service and amazing images. This time we even added the gender reveal as well. Would and have always recommended for private scans.

Can't recommend Hey Baby Southend enough!I booked my early pregnancy scan the moment I could due to anxiety following previous losses.The team were amazing and did everything they could to calm and reassure me.Since then I have attended to have a private gender blood test and a reassurance scan in between 6-12 weeks.I'm now pleased to be over half way and can't wait to go back for a 4D binding scan.The team have been nothing but fantastic and kind throughout and are perfect for anyone who has concerns or are having their first baby and don't know what to expect.

Been to Hey Baby 4D Southend 3 times now. Our first time was for an early reassurance scan which was great and did exactly as described by reassuring us that everything was going well.Our second time was for a 4D scan. Unfortunately baby was in an awkward position so the staff advised different exercises to hopefully get baby in a better position and even allowed me to go for a walk and come back to try again. We got some better photos but still not 100% clear due to baby's position and my anterior placenta but they kindly invited us back for a free rescan to try again. We eventually got some better photos and a lovely heartbeat bear and we're so thankful to ALL the staff at Hey Baby for being so patient and not rushing us. We couldn't have asked for more! Thank you!
