?? about 12 Week Sonogram...
We have an appointment to have our 12 week sonogram and blood work done this coming Wednesday. My question is regarding the sonogram. When you ladies went for yours, was the sonotech able to give you at least a guestimate as to whether it was a boy or a girl? We know she won't tell us anything definitively but I'm wondering if they can take an educated guess at that point.
Thanks!

Re: ?? about 12 Week Sonogram...
Nothing for me and I was 13wks at my last sono.
I know that if you want to know and they are able to see something..they will tell you but to sit tight and wait for a 20wk son that would confirm more.
Actually, Diana1215 just recently found out she is having a boy and is around 12/13wks.

Re: ?? about 12 Week Sonogram...
I have heard diff things...I think it depends on what tech you get. Some will take a guess and some won't. I have my 12 week sono on Thursday and I am DEMANDING they take at least a guess

I know! I feel the same exact way. I'm hoping they're take a guess at least. Fingers crossed!

I think if they see something that gives them a clue, they will probably take a guess.

If think if they can tell, it'd probably be a guess, unless it's some SUPER high tech equipment for some special reason.
I asked at my 12 wk appt and she said no, it's too early. But I didn't want to hear a guess - I wanted to wait until they were sure of the sex.

I found out - but I think it's really rare - and I am still not 100% believing that she is right until further down the road because you always hear of these mistakes.
When I got there I asked if she could tell the sex this early - she said usally not.
She then started the sono - and later asked if we wanted to know the sex because she could tell us what it is.
We of course said yes - and that's when she said It's a 
Good luck!!!!

Sometimes I think they can tell, but they don't want to say because it really would be a guess at that point.
A pp said she was 13 weeks, I was almost 14 weeks at my last one and they wouldn't take a gander at it.

Yup - they were able to take a guess for me at my 12 week sono/Ultrascreen test. They were able to take an early guess that it was a and showed me the appendage between the legs. However, they stressed that it was just a guess and the appendage could actually be swollen parts of a girl as well. I found out at my Level II 20 week sono and they were right the first time - !

Same here. She kept asking if we were SURE we wanted to know the sex.
When we said yes for the 3rd time she said "It's a boy!!"

Re: ?? about 12 Week Sonogram...
When I went I asked jokingly if she could tell ( never thinking she would actually give me an answer) and she said "it looks like the anatomy of a girl". When the doc came in after, the sono tech said we wanted to know and the doctor said the same thing. At my 20 week it was confirmed
