Novel non-invasive prenatal tests using a blood sample from the mother can be used to determine the sex and health of the growing baby from as early as 7 weeks gestation. These tests have profound implications for the choices available to women at early stages of pregnancy. These technologies are likely to be adopted on a global basis, but their implications for the developing world, particularly Asia, have been largely unexplored.
