Around 17-18 weeks...the genitals are big enough to be seen, and the baby is not so big that they are hard to find!

You can find out around 17 weeks I believe, but most doctors schedule your ultrasound at around 20 weeks. The main purpose of this ultrasound is to examine all aspects of the baby (brain, heart, organs, take measurements, etc.) and it is always an added bonus to find out the sex. But warning: I went at 19 weeks and was unable to find out due to the baby being curled into a ball. I went within the next month and was finally able to tell. The main thing is that the baby cooperate, so that you are able to tell

I've heard that you can find out early, at about 14 or 16 weeks but my doctor told me to wait to until the 20 week full ultrasound. Unfortunately, my baby wouldn't show us anything and we couldn't tell. My doctor did another ultrasound at about 28 weeks and we then found out we were having a girl.

I had almost weekly ultrasounds throughout my pregnancy and it was not until 18 weeks that we knew for sure that the baby was a girl. She was positioned correctly each time and the tech told me at 15 weeks she thought she was a boy. I have heard that it is easier to spot a boy earlier on for obvious reasons.

Typically between 16-18 weeks. The longer you wait, the more accurate, considering baby cooperates.

Have an ultrasound after the first 3 months they can usually tell the sex.

the best week to find out your babys sex is after your 14 week, sometimes you sont see them because they are in a position that they dont show, good luck
