What is a reliable medical baby gender predictor test?

There are no reliable gender predictions outside actually getting an ultrasound done and having the doctor tell you the gender. There are a lot of unproven theories regarding early gender prediction, but to be certain its always best to just get a picture taken.


Is measuring the femur bone in an ultrasound an accurate way to give you an estimated time of conception?

The best person to ask is the person doing the ultrasound. Having said that here are a few guidelines. Ultrasounds can give you a fairly accurate time for the length of the pregnancy. Before 10 weeks the measurement taken is crown-rump length, from the top of the head to the bottom of the spine. This is accurate to within 3-4 days. After about 12 weeks several measurements are taken, head circumference, head diameter and abdominal diameter as well as femur length and the results are plotted on a graph to compare with the estimated length of pregnancy. The earlier the measurements are taken the more accurate they are in assessing the length of the pregnancy.

Does ultrasound establish fetal age conclusively when there's question about a false period during pregnancy and hence about the date of conception?

Unfortunately no....... they take an "educated guess" which is based entirely on the measurements taken during the ultrasound. You will probably find also, that as the baby grows, the estimated "date of arrival" will also vary upto a week or so either side, because the speed of growth of the baby can differ from one pregnancy to the next and they use these measurements to determine this. The closer it gets to delivery date, the easier it becomes (supposedly!) to determine the exact age of the developing baby. actually the above answer is not accurate i have been a nurse in labor and delivery for 4 years.it depends on when the ultrasound is taken in early pregnancy it can be no more than 5 days off. in late pregnancy close to deliver it can be up tp 3 weeks off because after 20 weeks all baby grow at there own rate. by early pregnancy i mean between 6 and 12 weeks. what most women dont know is everything goes from your last period including ultrasound so in order to find conception date from ultrasound you have to take off two weeks because if you count back even from an ultrasound you will get the first day of your lmp or when the first day should have been if you are irregular. if the period you had was false they will be able to tell you
