Omg really that's so neat about the testing thru blood! I should be 10weeks in about 4days and I know week 9 is when it starts creating the gender parts so I knew there had to be a way!! Thank u all so much :) I'm a very excited new mommy to all this and it feels good to be able to reach out! Once I find out I will share right away!! Again thank u, I will ask my doctor more about it :)

My wife's OBGYN gave us info on a company (Progenity) that does blood genetic testing as early as 10 weeks.  They can test for downs, fragile X syndrome, Cystic fibrosis,Spinal muscular atrophy. They can also tell the sex of the baby.

My sister was given the option of finding out very early. I guess there has been new research that now there are signs of the baby's gender in the mothers blood.  It was a blood test. She didn't have to wait for the ultrasound at 16 to 20 weeks

You can find out at 14 weeks. You just need to look for an ultra sound place and it's around $50 but it's accurate!
