I found out at 16 weeks. I really think it depends on the Dr. I know some Dr will not do the gender check until 20 weeks.

Even at 20 weeks, they can only tell you with a 90% accuracy rate. I know of two people in the last 2 years where they got it wrong. You'd think technology would be better by now.

I always find out at my 20 week US check up. Altho with my 4th they could tell at 16 weeks. Hell even I could. Couldn't see the penis but he had very large testicles lol! The tech did say that they could be swollen labia but that she HIGHLY doubted it. We had it confirmed again about 10 weeks later.

at 13 weeks the perinatologist asked if we wanted to know and even though she said it wasn't 100%, her call was confirmed 4 times since...we are now 26 weeks.

i didnt find out til 30wks. thats because my lil girl was shy. but u usually find out @ your 20wk check up thats usually when its clear. @ 16 wks all a doctor can do is guess. i wouldnt trust @ 16 wks unless its got the biggest most odivious penis then id trust it but you cant really tell that early!

Really depends on the doc and office you go to ~ I was high risk and went to a perintologist (they are for high risk) and I was told by my SIl who works there as a RN as well as the techs on two occassion that they will not tell you til 18 weeks. Even if they can tell some what prior to that. There is risk of innaccuracy and they will not chance it prior to 18 weeks. So really depends ~ the earliest you can find out is when your doc is willing to tell you and when it is considered most accurate.

I found out at 20 weeks. I think most people find out at 20 weeks because that is when the Anatomy Scan is usually done.
