How soon can an ultrasound determine the gender of my baby?
An ultrasound can typically determine a baby's gender around 18 to 20 weeks of pregnancy, though some may provide an indication as early as 14 weeks.
Determining Baby's Gender with Ultrasound
Ultrasound technology has made it possible for expectant parents to learn about their baby's gender well before birth. Generally, an ultrasound can determine the gender of your baby during the second trimester, typically between the 18th and 20th weeks of pregnancy. This is because, by this time, the baby's external genitalia are developed enough to be visible on the ultrasound images.
In some cases, gender may be determined as early as 14 weeks, but this is less common and can be less reliable. The accuracy of gender determination at this stage largely depends on the baby's position and the quality of the ultrasound equipment used.
What to Expect During the Ultrasound
During the ultrasound, the technician will use a device called a transducer, which sends out sound waves that bounce off the baby and create an image on the screen. This image allows the technician to examine the baby's anatomy, including the genitals, to determine gender.
