Okay! I mean 8 weeks isnt reaalllyy that far away (check at 20 wks) but im just so dang impatient haha. Even if they do tell me, im gonna wait to buy stuff until i get in confirmed.
They might give you an idea, but baby is only about 6cm approx (2-3 inches) long. So can you imagine how tiny their little *bits* are? Even if they say they think it's one gender or the other I wouldn't by coloured stuff until you have you 20 week scan or have a 3d scan.
Its still hard to tell a difference at 12 Weeks, but some us techs are either really good at what they do or good guessers lol hopefully yours is and your baby will cooperate!
