When Can I Find Out the Baby's Sex? Posted: 01-03-07 13:21pm
I am just wondering when I can find out
the baby's sex?
I still have to ask my doctor but I was
just wondering if anyone knew.
Thanks, katie flower

Usually you have an ultrasound in between
18-22wks. They can usually tell you the
sex if you want to know.. But not always.
It's all up to the baby. Sometimes they
don't cooperate.

No it really depends actually. Usually
with a boy you can tell earlier-some
people at 14 weeks knew what they were
having.
I found out only at 19 weeks cause that's
when I had my next u/s after my 12 week
one.
.U.S.U.A.L.L.Y it's anywhere from 16 weeks
on.

Yeah you can try earlier but its less
accurate. My cousin found out it was a
boy with little certainty at 13
weeks.....Boy bits are easier to detect
for obvious reasons! Lol

Us tech told me the most accurate
reading begins at 18 but sometimes you can
tell earlier.

The u/s tech told me it was a girl at
about 15 weeks and she was right! But
usually they do one 18-22 weeks and they
are more accurate.

I found out at 18 weeks that I was having
a boy, but I had a 3d ultrasound because
where I live they wont tell you the sex in
regular ultrasounds
