Use SneakPeek Snap with a FEMALE helper
90% of SneakPeek Snap users feel no pain. Listen for the CLICK, instead!

1. Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water. Let air dry, as towels increase the chance of male DNA contamination.
2. Place one hand under the test taker’s arm and hold fi rmly. Use the palm of your other hand to push the blue plunger down straight and fi rmly into the device, making sure not to break the seal of the device with the skin, until a CLICK is heard and the plunger is fl ush to the device casing.
3. Once you hear the CLICK, release the blue plunger immediately and remove your hand from the device.
4. Set your timer for 4 minutes.
5. If blood flow hasn’t started by 1 minute, repeat steps 2-4.

Collect blood
Blood can fill fast here! Skip to step 10 when your sample is between the dual fill lines. This typically takes 1-4 minutes.

1. Dangle the arm in a relaxed vertical position with the collection tube pointing straight towards the ground.
2. Collect the sample until the blood level reaches anywhere between the dual fi all lines on the tube.
3. If 4 minutes have passed, skip to step 10. It’s okay to send us your sample even if it didn’t reach the lower fi ll line. SneakPeek Lab will still attempt to process it. If your sample is above the upper fi ll line, that’s fi ne, too, just send it in!

Remove SneakPeek Snap
In this step, you’ll separate your collection tube from the main SneakPeek Snap device casing.

1. Slowly peel SneakPeek Snap off your skin.
2. Hold SneakPeek Snap in one hand and the collection tube in an upright position with the other hand. SLOWLY bend the device casing so it separates from the tube, making sure to keep the tube in an upright position. The device casing can be disposed of in a normal trash bin.
3. Push the cap tightly to seal the collection tube. When the tube is capped, put it down for a moment.
4. Use the gauze pad to wipe any blood from your arm and apply the adhesive bandage.

Mix blood with preservative
Your collection tube has a clear preservative on the side walls to protect your sample, so it’s very important to mix blood and preservatives well by fully coating the sides of the tube.

1. Double-check that the collection tube is tightly capped.
2. Firmly tap the tube on your fl at the surface with the lid side facing down to break up blood clots until blood fl ows to the top of the tube.
3. Lightly shake the tube until blood coats the sides of the tube, or 20 seconds, whichever happens first.
4. If blood doesn’t coat the tube after 20 seconds, repeat steps 2 and 3 until it does.

Package sample for shipment
Let’s make sure your sample gets safely back to SneakPeek lab. We recommend taking a picture of your return label so you can track your package.

1. Place the collection tube into the resealable bag with gauze and seal. Do not remove gauze.
2. Place the bag into your original SneakPeek box, peel the adhesive strip on the flap, and seal the box closed.
3. Affix the included prepaid return label to the back of the SneakPeek box. Your box is now ready to ship!
4. Take a pic of your return label, and note your return shipping method. It can be USPS or FedEx.

Mail sample back to SneakPeek
We can’t wait to receive your sample and share if you’re having a boy or girl!

1. For USPS return labels, please mail your kit to a US post office. For FedEx return labels, please mail your kit to a FedEx shipping location. Extreme temperatures can affect your sample quality, so we don’t recommend using an outdoor mail collection box.
2. When your sample arrives at SneakPeek lab, we’ll check it in and send an email that it was received by 7 p.m. Eastern Time the same day.
