At three weeks old, the embryo is less than an eight of an inch long. There is no hint of the gonads, which will develop into sex-producing organs, with a sonogram you can probably see if, you have more than one embryo.

If they check a Beta HCG (blood test) over a course of a few days and the levels increase, this could be a sign of twins. But not in all cases. An ultrasound is the best way to find out if you are having twins. I was 5 or 6 weeks pregnant when I found out I was having twins. Usually they will do a ultrasound at your first or second doctor's appointment just to check things out. They won't be able to tell the sex of the baby until you are about 5 months along.

An ultrasound may tell you if you are having twins, but definitely not the gender. At three weeks it is still an embryo. If I remember correctly, it's not until the 10th week or so that the baby starts to form, but I think it is much later than that until the genetalia (sp?) comes into play. Congrats though!

they might be able to tell you about the twins by listening to the heart beats in about a month but even if they can tellyou gender they are not leagally alowwed until you are 21 weeks b/c some people either dont want the baby or the twin and will have an abortion simply until they have the gender of baby they want.

You have to be at least 20 weeks usually before they even look for gender. And an ultrasound will be needed to answer both your questions.

No, not until you're about 3-4 months along.
