They told me they thought my daughter was a boy around 11 weeks (and I saw what they saw to make them think that), and she is most definitely a living, breathing female 2 year old now. I just had an u/s with this pregnancy and asked when the earliest they can tell for sure, and the u/s tech said that 14 weeks is about the earliest that an u/s is truly reliable as far as sex.

Keep us posted! P.S. I didn't find out the baby's sex at the 12 week scan, unfortch. But I DID see it wiggling and tumbling and scratching its head and its heart is just plugging away! Equally totally freaking thrilling!! And P.P.S. My hubbie and I ordered a fetal doppler online... you can rent them for about $25 per month. In these weeks where I'm not fully showing, etc, it is an enormous, sweet comfort to be able to hear the baby's heartbeat at home when I start to have "those thoughts." Maybe think about getting one for a month or two, just for sanity's sake. All the best.
