Doubtful.
It would be a guess at best & I don't think most places even bother saying anything this early on.

Re: im 14w 3d...do you think they will be able to tell the sex??
My cousin found out the sex at her 12w ultrascreen!! It's really hard to tell bc the baby is so small so I probably wouldn't trust it 100%.

They *might* be able to take a guess, but don't be too disappointed if they can't see anything yet.

Re: im 14w 3d...do you think they will be able to tell the sex??
They most likely won't even venture a guess.
At my amnio I had a sono first- and I was about 17 weeks and she wouldn't even guess for me.

Re: im 14w 3d...do you think they will be able to tell the sex??
I agree with what everyone is saying. Sometimes if it's a BOY it can take a while to see the BOY parts. So they might not see anything and say it's a GIRL and then 6 weeks later you have another U/S and low and behold it's actually a BOY. So I think they avoid this until everything is fully developed and they can be more accurate.

My doctor wouldn't even guess at 14 weeks, she told me they never guess until at least 18 weeks.

Re: im 14w 3d...do you think they will be able to tell the sex??
Yes and no.
At 13wks, we were able to tell...and I say we, since I knew what to look for and then the sono tech agreed, HA!
It was a guess and a good one for us.

I bet most techs won't even take a guess at 14w. Don't worry, the time will go quickly and you will know before you know it.

I found out at 12: but it's more about angle at that point.
Re-confirmed at 16, reconfirmed at 20.
It was a  and he's not shy.

The sono tech made a guess at 12 weeks. She said it was too early to really tell for sure but it looked like a girl. At 20 weeks it was confirmed to be a girl.

Maybe but you'd want confirmation at your Level II

Not true. At 13, 14 weeks, boy and girl babies look virtually the same. They all have a nub. The angle of the nub in a profile shot can help determine if its a boy or a girl. But its actually more common for a tech to guess boy, and later to find out its actually a girl.

Re: im 14w 3d...do you think they will be able to tell the sex??
possibly- they had an "educated" guess for me at the NT test- although I didnt let them tell me since we are trying to hold out for the birth- or at least until we are both together- I had gone to the test myself

Re: im 14w 3d...do you think they will be able to tell the sex??
Yes it's definitely possible! I had my ultra screen at 12 weeks and she asked me if she was able to to tell, did we want to know the sexes? I said yes but one babies legs were crossed and the other wasnt in a good position either. But she said definitely at my next appointment they will be able to tell (assuming nobody's legs are crossed again!lol) And my next appointment is Monday when I will be 14w3d, just like you!

This is what happened to us. With my DD, they guessed boy at our NT at 13 weeks. At our Level II, we found out it was a girl!!

Hey I didn't say I was sure of anything...just going with what my sono tech told me. That's why i said "I think" b/c I have no clue. Each sono tech had a diff reason for why they couldn't (or didn't want to) tell the sex that early.
