Just a Quick Question!
Posted: 03-18-07 20:48pm

So, my husband and I went to the doctor last friday and had another sonogram done. I was 13 weeks prego. at the time and the baby had grown SOOO much since the 1st sonogram. The doctor was able to get a look in between the babies legs. Of course I had no idea what I was lookig at really, but at the end of the apt. the doctor said that if she had to say now she would predict a girl. She said she saw something that made her think it was a girl!! Of course IM WAS VERY EXCITED to hear that. But, she also said not to get our hopes up it was still early. So, does anyone think that its possible to see at 13 weeks what we might be having??? Hope to hear some feedback!

the genitals don't even form until 12 weeks (i think), so at 13 weeks they'd barely be there. personally, i wouldn't trust anything before 18 weeks.

will you get another ultrasound around 18-22 weeks?

yes....ill be going around may 4th for another ultrasound and thats when i find out what im having. But, by then ill be about 22-23 weeks prego. It just seems so far away! its horrible the waiting. I wish there were just others accurate ways to find out sooner what youre having.

I agree with .B.. I wouldn't trust that they could see much that early! I didn't find out until 3 days before I had her, that I was having a girl Laughing She was bashful I guess Wink It is horrible waiting but just think how much more excited you'll be! I'd hate for them to tell me I was having a girl that early on, get my hopes all up then a couple months later they see that they were wrong!

the waiting does suck. I'm 25 wks and still don't know. hopefully on april 30th , I'll be 31 wks I think they can tell me! I definately agree with the other ladies, although i'm not a mother yet it would be so silly to think your having a girl that early on , it could so easily be a lil boy but he's too small to show his bits! you never know!
good luck with everything though darling!
