How do you already know the gender!?!?

Even if you're due early Oct aren't you about 16 weeks along? How do so many of you seem to already know the gender? I'm 13 weeks and dying to know. How do you do it ladies?

    I did IVF and genetic testing to get pregnant so I knew before I even got pregnant. Curious how everyone else knows this early.

    A lot of people have done genetic testing (Harmony is one) which are blood draws. They can also tell you the sex of your baby as early as 10 weeks.

    Or by going to an ultrasound boutique and paying out of pocket for an early gender reveal ultrasound.

    We had a cell-free DNA test done at week 12. It was to rule out chromosomal abnormalities, but as a bonus, they can tell you the sex.

    Went to an ultrasound boutique they do gender prediction at 13 weeks and you go back at 15 weeks for gender confirmation :) our baby was very cooperative so we just got gender determination at 13 weeks :) it was well worth it ! ❤️

    We have an ultrasound place in Columbus,Ohio that will do 14 week gender determinations and they tell you right there :) it's pretty awesome to know early- especially for planners like myself!

    Im doing a gender reveal baby shower so I'm dying to know. Plus I would like to start calling baby by its name instead of Jellybean but idk where I would go get early testing done. My doctor only does one at about 20 weeks unless you have some condition requiring more. Is it pricey to go out of pocket?

    We pay for a 3D/4D ultrasound any time after 18 week and they will tell us ! It's usually around $200 here In Canada to find out gender, our other ultrasounds are 2D and free !

    I've found out at 13 weeks with all of my pregnancies. So far they've been correct. Baby girl number 4 is on her way!

    We did the Harmony test at 10 weeks and it tests for the gender too, in addition to chromosomal abnormalities.

    I just went to the hospital at 15wk for what they called my "Official ultrasound" and they were able too look in between his legs. I could tell It was a boy before they ever told me what was on the screen.

    I just told my sonographer I wanted to know, if he could tell. He said he got a good look and was certain. That was at 12.5 weeks.

    We had the genetic blood test to rule out any chromosome defects due to our little one having a birth defect that can be linked to chromosome defects. We found out we are having a little girl at 13 weeks. I'm almost 16 right now.

    A lot of us doing these blood tests early on are high risk..so be thankful you aren't!:) I did the Panorama test at 10 weeks...found out at 12 weeks it's a GIRL!!  I wasn't high risk with my other 2 kids and we found out around 12 weeks at the NT scan with both of them...and both were right!
