Verify test and gender

hologram87

Today we went to have some genetic counseling, had a dating ultrasound (we're right on track EDD 11/14) and that was awesome to see the baby.  Makes it feel a bit more real!   We also went for bloodwork for the Verify test.  They said that if we wanted to know the sex, they would test for that and tell me when they called with the results.  I'm torn about whether to find out that way, or wait for the 18 week ultrasound.    It's not a huge deal, and finding out a few more weeks early would be fun, but I remember with DD how exciting it was at the ultrasound when the technician said "It's a girl!"  

 

If you had the blood test, did you find out with the results?   or did you wait til your ultrasound?

We had them do the gender, but not tell me directly. Our nurse called our local shoe store for me, who I'd arranged with to wrap up a pair of either pink or black baby sneakers based on boy or girl. I picked them and my partner and I
