  Congrats! I'm excited to hear that you found out at 16 weeks. We have an informal ultrasound at 18 weeks and then our anatomy ultrasound at 20. I was thinking we wouldn't find out until 20 but maybe there's some hope that we'll find out earlier!

  Welcome to team purple! It is fun to shop. I'm surprised they were actually able to tell you and not just make a guess at 16 weeks but that is cool.

  I was a little surprised too and kept asking her if she was positive.  The boy was totally obvious, clear as day.  The girl was the one I kept really saying positive, you're sure? She said oh yeah see these three little lines.  I was fortunate that they weren't shy and she's also very experienced, she actually did DS's ultrasounds over 5 years ago.

  Congratulations! I go for my 16 week apt in two weeks, but they said we wouldn't know until the 20 wk apt. Did you have a certain type of u/s machine? The u/s machine my doc uses seems really old to me

  I'm not sure what type of machine they are using, it does seem like a much newer one and I know they can flip a switch to flip it to 3D.

  I found out with most of my children (I currently have 6) with a level 2 u/s at 16 wks and got a 100% confirmation. Same with the twins. Exactly 16 wks and it was EXTREMELY obvious. Now at 30 wks (we have u/s with MFM every other week) they're still all boy and all girl!!!
