Oh and sex organs start to develop and grow at 9 weeks so if they get a good angle I think its possible. But only if they have newer technology and not older stuff.

I was certain at my 12 week appt that my baby was a girl.. Sure enough it was confirmed at 17 weeks. I think its easier to tell with boys that early but its better to wait a little longer to be certain.

I had a specialist do my ultrasound at 13wks cuz my pregnancy was considered high risk due to a miscarriage previously at 19wks, I was told I was having a boy at that ultrasound, and reconfirmed at 18wks. He was born a boy!! I'm sure its possible!!

I wouldn't believe it at 12 weeks. That's when the sex organs are just developing!

I dont think so i had a specialist and the earliest they saw my son was 14 wks and even then they didnt confirm till 18 wks that he was for sure a boy! so i m not sure unless they re doing 3D on you that early for some reason!
