I haven't seen any topics on this yet so I have to ask.
Do you find out the gender of the babies later because there are multiples and less space for them to flip around? I know most people find out by 18-20 weeks. Is that the same for multiples?
Sorry if this question is silly. I'm 11w4d so it's not like I'm going to find out in the next 2 months but I'm still curious.
Thanks!
Re: This might be a silly question but I'm curious
I found out at 18 weeks.
I had a bit of a different situation though. We didn't find out it was twins until almost 12 weeks. There was some lag time between getting the midwives group I had started seeing to "release" me to the OB, and then after my initial visit with her, I finally got the ball rolling at the MFM/perinatal clinic.
Boy/girl twins born at 37w1d and 37w2d
We found out at 17 weeks, and had it confirmed a couple weeks later at the anatomy scan.
I'm having my NT scan at 13 weeks. I'm not expecting anything relating to the sexes. Was just curious if it's more difficult.
Thanks!
We chose not to find out - apparently we are the minority as according to our DR. we were only the 2nd couple to NOT FIND OUT .. it was so so so worth it best feeling ever!
We had 2 Girls

And with the delivery trifecra of one twin vaginal, one c-section with general anesthesia for twin B, Spencer and Sidney joined us at 35 weeks exactly on June 18.
At my 20w U/S they couldn't tell. But they figured it was because I was crying the entire U/S because I also had just found out it was twins.
So I had another U/S the next week where we found out it was 2 girls.
this...
Yep! They guessed at 16w (though she said technically it was early so "don't go buying blue yet") and then for sure at 20w. And it was confirmed at every u/s after that.
