No. There are some kits sold online that claim to reliably determine the gender of a baby after five weeks of pregnancy. These are a scam.

Currently in the US expecting parents usually learn the sex of their baby by identifying the genitals on an ultrasound image. More reliable but risky tests are chorionic villus sampling and amniocentesis. A new study has found that a simple, non-invasive blood test can reliably determine the gender at seven weeks, the earliest of any known method.

Although it would be nice to know earlier, the sex cannot be determined at five weeks, and for the moment the blood test at seven weeks is only allowed in Europe. In the US we have to wait.

The size of fetus is 4 to 5 mm at 5 weeks pregnancy and about half an inch or 1.25 cm at 7 weeks of pregnancy. Fetus grows by geometrical proportion with time. So you can calculate the size of fetus at 6 weeks by mathematical calculation. Say the size be X mm at six weeks. So you have 4 mm, X mm, 25 mm in the series, So X squred equals to 4*25=100. X is equal to 10. So the size of the fetus will be 10 mm at 6 weeks.
