Prenatal Paternity DNA Testing (Non invasive and Amnio) are performed to prove the identity of the father of a child while the mother is still pregnant with the child.
These tests are performed regularly and they are safe for the mother and the baby.
Your DNA is formed and decided when you are conceived It does not change after that.
You get half of your genetic makeup from your mother and her family blood line and you receive an equal amount from your father and his family blood line.
This creates a unique and unusual you.
Even when you have sisters and brothers who share the same parents, their DNA will be slightly different from your own.
The doctors could tell that they were your sisters and brothers but they would also be able to tell they were not you.
If however, you have a truly identical twin then their DNA will read identically to your own.
When a Prenatal Paternity DNA testing (Non invasive and Amnio) is performed because of a court order, the evidence collected must follow a specific procedure.
When the mother and the father are swabbed for samples they need to be in the presence of officials that can document that the samples came from them.
The sample package will then be sealed and sent directly to the lab for analysis.
If the Prenatal Paternity DNA testing is done without a court order, then a doctor will remove the sample for the child and the parents can do an at-home sample that they send in for analysis and comparison.
The non invasive prenatal paternity DNA testing is done by the doctor when the baby is between ten to thirteen weeks of gestation.
It must be performed at this stage in order for the doctor to extract a large enough sample from the placenta to present for analysis.
The amnio test is done when the mother reaches anywhere from the fourteenth week to the twenty fourth week of pregnancy.
A long needle is inserted into the womb through the woman's abdomen to extract amniotic fluid from around the infant.
This procedure has more possible complications than the procedure to draw a small sample from the placenta does.
If the sac of amniotic fluid does not recover from the small hole that is pierced into it then the fluid can leak out and cause the mother to give birth to the baby long before the due date.
This test is also performed on older women if the doctor suspects that the baby may have a disease such as Down's syndrome or that he/she may be compromised in some way that they need to be aware of before delivery.
