The Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology recently reported a new technique for determining the sex of an unborn child. The technique, which consists of a simple blood test from the mother, can reliably determine the sex of a fetus as early as five weeks into the pregnancy. This technique raises ethical questions about the consequences of identifying X-linked diseases early in pregnancy. You can read more about it in the article, "Blood test tells gender of fetus as early as 5 weeks," which appeared on msnbc.com on December 21, 2009.
