Well what I'm confused about is that I heard at 13 weeks, you can tell the gender of the baby, but then I'm hearing you cant tell till after the 16th. which is correct? because at the moment, I am 13 weeks and 1 day, but if I can't tell at 13 weeks I dont want to get all worked up about it and then find out I have 3 more weeks to wait...

You can't find out at 13 weeks. And even 16 weeks is early. It's more like 18 weeks. 13 weeks you can't see a s_x at all really.

Around here, they do it at 20 weeks.

The baby's reproductive organs begin to form at 13 weeks, very rarely you can find a combination of an advanced ultrasound tech and a very high tech ultrasound machine that can determine it for you. It is possible, my sister found out at 12 weeks (she was measuring ahead two weeks I think). But your average joe tech and mediocre machines can tell you at 18 weeks. I would wait to find out because chances are it will be a waste of money to go that soon.

Using an ultrasound it's just too early, a tech may be able to tell you that your baby is possibly one s_x or the other but there would be no guarentee. Most doctors don't order an u/s until around week 18 to week 20.

My ultrasound tech at 19 weeks wasn't even too sure. But at 32 weeks they were positive (and correct)

Well, I have 3 boys and with each one of them, they couldn't tell until was 20 weeks. I had an ultrsound at 16 weeks and they couldn' tell. So I would say 18 weeks and up.

I had the gender determined a few times. At 24 weeks they put "GIRL?" on it, like with a question mark... but then at 30 weeks I went to a different tech and they put "GIRL!!!!!!!!" So...haha :)
