determining sex at 12 weeks
i saw in another post, that someone found out this early. I know its not going to be 100% accurate, but is it actually possible for them to make a real good guess? i'm so impatient i can't wait until 20 weeks!

Re: determining sex at 12 weeks
When I did the NT screening at about 12 -13 weeks, I asked the tech if she could tell the baby's sex. She said it was still a little early to be really sure so she wouldn't tell us either way.

I've heard the same. The sex organs have started to form by that time but it's still easy to guess wrong on the sono.
Don't buy blue or pink paint just yet

Re: determining sex at 12 weeks
They might be able to make a guess, but I would put about as much trust in it as I would the Chinese Calendar. I know the waiting is the worst, but I think it's better than getting all excited about  or  only to find out the tech was wrong.

Re: determining sex at 12 weeks
My dr. said that 12 weeks was too early. He made a guess at 15 weeks and even said that we would have to wait till the level II to be sure!

Re: determining sex at 12 weeks
I went for my regular monthly check up at 12 weeks and the PA had to a sono in the office because she couldnt find the heartbeat (I nearly lost mine when she told me that ) and he was hiding and she said it looks like a boy. She was right, after I had my level 2 she said she knew it was boy all along but didnt want to give me a defint answer.

Re: determining sex at 12 weeks
They told us at 12 weeks, the tech said just not to run out and do everything blue! She said she would have to make sure at the 20 week sono. Turns out she was right from the beginning.

That's exactly what happened with us.

Re: determining sex at 12 weeks
I really think the only way you can know FOR SURE at 12 weeks is by CVS.
