how far along were you when you found out the gender?
We go in two weeks for another ultrasound and to hopefully find out the gender of the baby. I will only be 16 weeks and I am thinking that it will be too early to tell. I am happy to go anyway to get to see her again, but Idk what will happen if they can't tell (when will we get to go back again). Those of you who are prego/have kids, how far along were you when you found out the gender?

My Married Bio!
My BFP Chart!
I had an elective U/S at 17w6d and they were right. It was confirmed at 19w5d at our A/S and again with the high risk MFM people at 21w.
FWIW, we had an U/S at 12w3d and using the "angle of the dangle" website Chelsea posted I was able to "determine" girl with my completely untrained eye, so I'm willing to bet a tech/doctor can tell with good certainty by 16 weeks.
I found out at 16 weeks with my twins. Boy and Girl were VERY obvious even to me!
If the baby is cooperating, you should be able to tell
GOOD LUCK!

my read shelf:
No I had not had any U/S at that point. My doc did not do them early and we opted not to do the NT scan at 13 weeks. Looking back I wish I would of so it wouldn't of been such a shock at 20 weeks! haha!!
The funny thing is we did the dopppler at every appt. and not once did she detect two different heartbeats!
My silly Lily is almost 4.

so after 18 weeks you didn't have any more ultrasounds?
I guess he is chosing to do it sooner. Yes, I am going every 4 weeks. I went last at 14 weeks and he told me to go in 2 weeks for the ultrasound (they don't do them in office).
Thanks for the reassurance!
He originally said he's have us wait till atleast 18, but then when we went for the next appointment he said we can go at 16 (I didn't ask to have it any sooner or anything)...so I was arguing!
That's crazy! I have had people ask me if it's twins already! LoL. But it's really just bloating. 20 weeks is a long time to wait for an ultrasound!
Yeah, I am sure that if they tell us something at 16 weeks I am gonna be weary until I get a little farther along.
yeah, that is really rare now!
Awesome! That's exciting! Mine wouldn't do it before 20 weeks but they do them in their office so maybe that's why. I can't wait to see which team you're on
First off, OH MY GOSH! YAY! You're pregnant! I am super duper excited for you! I wish you an easy nine months!
I was 40 weeks when I found out the gender
I highly suggest going team green. It's totally worth the wait and I plan on doing it for the next baby (if it ever happens).

Ha, me too! When they announced I had a girl they mumbled "it's a girl" thinking we knew the sex. When I was like "OH MY GOD, it's a girl" the doctor asked if the ultrasound showed a boy. I told him we opted not to find out and he looked shocked and said "No body does that nowadays".
So glad I waited.

Thank you!!! So far the first 3 months haven't been too bad!
I could never ever ever go team green! I can't wait to know! Plus, I am a pink or blue kinda gal, and don't care much for yellow and green (no offense)!
that is great to hear!
