Man, you are so lucky. We decided that we want to know the sex of our baby and they just will not tell you down here in halifax. It really sucks. Since I have a high risk pregnancy because of my weight we are hoping that they will tell us. Cross your fingers for us.
Cheers,

Hehe I didnt know for sure till 36 weeks but here they ultrasound at every appointment but they wont tell u the sex until 20 weeks, even though u can see something at 17 wks, they wouldnt tell me . They usually try and do it around 20 wks since thats when they do the ultrasound to measure the baby before they get to big to measure properly.

Wow, we only get one scan here. And thats around week 19-20. They only offer a scan later on if they suspect that there are problems. And again as for the sex, they just wont tell ya!! Buggers!

I had to specifically ask to know the sex, and that was around 20 weeks.. I was told it looked like a girl but there was no guarantee. Then at one of my later scans (around 34 weeks I think) I asked again and it was definitely a little girl!
**edited to add**
my baby was being awkward during the scan, and that's why the sonographer wasn't sure.. So really it depends on how co-operative your baby is feeling as to whether you find out the sex!
