When and How can you find out the sex?
| Thu, 11-18-2004 - 4:07pm |
Hey girls!
I am due 7-18-05 and I was wondering how and when I can find out the sex?
I have a 14 month old already and my doc gave me 2 ultrasounds the first time around...one at 8 weeks and one at 8 months. Can I find out at 8 weeks? Seems kinda soon? Is there another way to find out besides an ultrasound?
The first time I wanted to be suprised but my doc knew what it was, I never asked her how.

They say you can find out any time after 18 weeks. I just found out and am so happy to know. My husband and I feel even more connected to the baby and have had an easier time hunkering down to finding a name. I also love the fact that I can say, "she" instead of "it"...much more personal.
However, my sister knows TWO people who were predcited wrong. Very scary! Although, the woman doing my ultrasound was able to look for excess tissue in the lungs...so I trusted her when she told me she could see the internal organs of our little girl.
You will have to schedule an extra ultrasound if you want to find out sooner than your last scheduled ultrasound, however, if your insurance doesn't deem it as "neccessary" you might have to pay out of pocket.
All the best to you and your family!
