Is It a Boy Or Girl?
Posted: 06-17-05 23:50pm

I am a military dependent so unfortunatley I am limited at the hospital to what they will do bc they are cheap..Lol my first actual ultrasound isnt until 20 weeks which is right before my hubby leaves for a deployment
=( will the doctor be able to tell me then if its a boy or girl? I would really love for him to know before he leaves bc he wont be here for our baby's birth...(its gonna be our first baby)


thanks

As long as your baby decides to cooperate (does not have his/her legs crossed) they will be able to tell you.

I really depends. It can be anywhere from 15-16 weeks on. It's easier to tell with boys though. I found out at 19 weeks I was having a boy. It took them a while to figurw it out though cause he wouldn;t uncross his legs for the longest time. (i have a pic of the bottom of his feet and you can see they're crossed-lol) I was so nervous that when I went back for my 32 week u/s the first question I asked was- so we're still sure it's a boy? And then they had no problem telling. Mr. Flasher! Lol
