About This At-Home Maternity DNA Test | 1 Potential Mother + 1 Child The My Forever DNA® At-Home Maternity DNA Test Kit for 1 potential mother and 1 child helps families accurately and privately determine whether one woman is the biological mother of a child using simple cheek swab collection from home. This private home maternity test is designed for personal knowledge and peace of mind, with trusted lab standards, accurate results, confidential testing, and real human support from start to finish. What a Maternity DNA Test Does A maternity DNA test compares genetic markers between an alleged biological mother and a child to determine whether they share a biological mother-child relationship. The comparison runs on 24 DNA genetic markers with dual processing through a US-based AABB-accredited and CAP-certified laboratory partner. When maternity is confirmed, results typically show 99.999% or higher probability. When maternity is excluded, exclusion is 100%. When Maternity Testing Is Actually Needed Maternity testing is less common than paternity testing because a mother's biological connection to her child is usually established at birth. The scenarios where testing is worth doing: Adopted children searching for or reconnecting with a birth mother. Immigration cases requiring biological documentation of the mother-child relationship. Hospital or agency record errors where more than one woman may have been recorded as the birth mother. IVF or surrogacy cases where the biological mother needs to be confirmed. Estate or inheritance matters where the biological mother-child relationship needs verification. Situations where a woman claims to be the biological mother but the family has doubts. How Accurate Is an At-Home Maternity DNA Test? When cheek swabs from both participants yield viable DNA, accuracy is scientifically strong. The comparison is identical in methodology to a paternity test, except the alleged parent is the mother rather than the father. Same lab, same 24 markers, same dual processing, same accuracy standard. When to Choose a Legal Maternity Test Instead This kit is for informational use only. If the result may be used for immigration documentation, custody proceedings, or estate matters, a legal chain-of-custody maternity test is required. Legal testing involves witnessed collection with photo identification. Legal maternity testing is offered as a separate service.
