How to find out sex of baby early? Help!

Question

So Ive heard of some people finding out about the sex of their baby before the anatomy scan through a blood test they do to expectant mom. Its not amnio. What is it?? I want to ask for it next week at my visit! Im 15 weeks n dont want to wait until week 20!

Answer

Thanks ladies! I think i might checkout the 3D US option!

Answer

You can get a 3d/4d scan from 14weeks to find out the sex, price ranges from $90 to $200 depending on how much time you want to see bub :)

Answer

The 3D/4D places around here will do a gender scan at 16 weeks. I'm having one done in a couple weeks. It runs $75-$100 depending on the package you buy, but I've seen places that will do it for around $50.

Answer

It's a screening test and results take at least 2 weeks so you're better of waiting at this point.

Answer

Harmony, Panorama, or MaterniT21. Their primary purpose is to screen for chromosomal abnormalities and it's just a bonus that they can find out gender. But they usually do the test sooner than 15w so idk if it can still be done.

Answer

They can do CVS at 10 wks women over 35 or history of chromosome/ genetic abnormality.

Answer

u can pay for an elective us. I did with my first at 16 weeks. It was only like $50.

Answer

The noninvasive prenatal test (NIPT) is what it is, I think. Harmony is one brand name. It's pricey and can take a couple weeks to get. I don't know where you are, but my doc would not arbitrarily order this test for me because its primary purpose is to test for chromosomal abnormalities, not to tell you the gender. You're likely better off getting the anatomy scan in a couple weeks.
