I found out at 16 weeks 1 day that I was having a boy, I haven't had another ultrasound since then will in 2 weeks but I m positive that the tech knew what she was seeing especially since it is very noticeable in my picture!!
I did something called a peekaboo scan to tell the gender at 16 weeks, my doc said her techs have never been wrong. And they werent at my 20 week scan, they were right, Its a girl. Now everyone keeps teasing me that it will be a Boy. I really hope not.
Most ultrasound techs can tell at 16 weeks if its a boy.
I was 16 weeks when I found out with my first. We did a rescan and it was still the same. He was definitely a boy.
Many of people have ran out and bought everything blue and prepared a boys nursery after hearing ITS A BOY after an ultrasound. IMAGINE THEIR DISMAY when they had to take their very beautiful baby GIRL home decked out in an all blue ensemble to their beautiful blue sports themed nursery... LOL. Point is ultrasound results have been wrong before...
It's true, at 16 weeks I found out I was having a boy at a private business that did ultrasounds for keepsake not medical purposes. At 20 weeks I went for my gender confirmation with my doctor's office, and they confirmed I was having a boy. You've just got to be careful if you do go to private businesses as they may not be as knowledgeable, and could miss or not notify you of things that could be medically necessary about baby's health and or size. It is however possible that they could have been mistaken, my aunt (course it was back in the 80's) was told her entire pregnancy and at every ultrasound that she was having a boy. She gave birth to a girl lol
Not to early. Especially with a boy. I've seen women find out as early as 14 weeks with a boy. It's all in how experienced the tech is. So I will say congrats on a boy. :)
