If you've had an elective ultrasound (mainly to determine gender), when did you have it done? I've scheduled mine for Monday, I'll be 15 w,1 d (ticker isn't updated). I KNOW that they aren't 100% accurate at this point, but I'm just wondering when you had yours and if you're further along did they confirm it at anatomy scan. Our tech at the NT scan said boy but it was totally a guess so I'm curious to see what this one says

The place I went claims to be able to tell gender at 14 weeks. I went at 14 weeks 5 days and the tech said boy and printed out some photos that showed boy parts very clearly.
At my anatomy scan around 20/21 weeks the tech said he was still a boy.

We had an elective at 15w2d because my a/s won't be until 21 weeks and I'm impatient
I have to say, the tech that did mine was *fantastic*. She was as actual u/s tech prior to going to work there, and she pointed out a lot of things along the way I wouldn't have expected at an elective, like showing us the kidneys, stomach, etc.
As far as the gender goes, she said she is never wrong because she won't guess, she'll keep bringing you back to be scanned until she KNOWS. Luckily it was obvious on ours, no question he's a boy. She checked from every possible angle(multiple times during the 45 minute scan), and the parts were clearly visible, including a shot that shows both the penis and the umbilical cord from the profile.
I don't know if our experience was typical or not, but I am 100% certain she was correct.

We found out DS1 was a boy at a regular scheduled appt at 15w0d, which was later confirmed at our previously scheduled elective scan at 16w.
DS2 we had an elective scan around 15w5d
No doubt either was a boy.
