Okay I was supose to have my ultrasound on march 12th but they changed it today to feb. 20th(next friday) :p i'm 14 weeks 5 days now will they be able to tell the sex of my baby???

They changed it cause they said it feels like i'm farther along but it's probably just cause i'm short-they told me the same thing with my first. But the ultrasound showed I was right where I was suppose to be. The baby's heartbeat was strong-140 bpm!

Hey

It isn't determined necessarily on how far along you are, it's whether or not the baby is laying in the right position for the doctor to be able to tell the sex of the baby. Most of the time, the sex of the baby is pretty well evident around 20 weeks...That is, if the baby is in the right postion. I had two ultrasounds done at 2 different doctor appointments before the baby was turned a way that they could tell he was a boy.
