At 20 weeks we had an ultrasound and it was confirmed that the baby is a girl. Our baby girl is due in 12 weeks. I think the earliest you can truely tell is between 16 and 18 weeks and thats because until that point you can't tell a boy is a boy. So 18 to 20 weeks is your best bet at finding out gender. (After that it gets harder to tell due to lack of room in the womb. Or so that is what a doctor and 2 nurses told me
Most patients undergo an ultrasound at around 18-20 weeks (about four and a half to five months). Normally, at this stage of pregnancy we can determine the baby's sex, but not always. The position of the baby during the ultrasound is the most important aspect in our ability to tell the baby's sex, andthere's no way to influence that. For obvious reasons, it's usually easier to see if the baby is a boy. One reliable method is using amniocentesis to check the baby's chromosomes. This test is usually performed on a mother who is 35 years or older, for the purpose of identifying possible genetic problems.
