How are all these 1st tri'ers finding out the sex so early?

Jessimurph · January 2009

I thought all fetal sex organs pretty much looked the same until about 14/15 weeks.

They told me the correct sex (boy) both times at my 12 week nst. If they would have said girl, I would not have believed em. Hard to miss the weiner though.

They told you the sex of your baby by your NST - Non-stress test?? - how is that even possible?? Am I reading that right????

Genetic testing.

What is the 12 week test....isn't it the NST?? Where they do blood work and the U/S.

No, that's the NT Scan. NST = non-stress test and is fetal monitoring on your belly.

yes, they are all "nubs" at the NT scan... but the angle of the nub can tell you a lot. a guess of boy based on nub angle is over 90% accurate at 12-13 weeks.
