Okay, you just found out you're having a baby. The very next thing you want to do is find out whether it's a boy or a girl because you just can't start too early deciding what color to paint the nursery, right?

At a cost of between (UK)£190 and £240 (dependent upon how fast you want your results mailed to you) the test does seem to be a bit expensive just so you can get an early jump on what color the baby's room is going to be. In addition to that consideration, there seems to be some some concern over whether the test actually works.
