Not sure how it works in NZ but a friend here in the UK discovered upon the birth of her first child that her and her husband combined had the genetic thingywotsits for a very serious medical condition that affected about 50% of their female children so when they decided they wanted another baby they had some tests done at 12weeks to find out the sex of the baby and if it was affected and while the baby was female it was clear of the genetic condition.

So there are ways to find out on medical grounds the baby's sex and if they have a genetic condition within the timeframe that allows for termination to be considered.

I dont think this test has any place with such serious considerations, its more of a gimmick for people who want to jump the queue so to speak and of course opens it up for people to abuse it for sex selection.
