gender is determined at the moment of conception, however it isn't until around the 16th to the 17th week of pregnancy that the sex of the fetus can be determined by ultasound.
At thirteen weeks the fetus is fully formed and as long as your doctor knows you are pregnant when prescribing he/she feels thst the benefits outweigh any problems.
no
When the sperm meets the egg. The sprem contains the gender in the form of an x or y chromosome
At 34 weeks, the fetus is roughly 18inches (45cm) from top to toe
I'm 8wk 5days. My fetus measures at 2.07 cm.
After the first eight weeks, the embryo is referred to as a fetus. At this stage, the major organs have formed and the fetus continues to grow and develop until birth.
probably because the fetus pressed against the bladder
You cannot get pregnant two days after ovulation. During ovulation however, gender is 50/50. You will be able to see which gender your child is after being pregnant for 7 weeks.
No, by this stage the fetus should be clearly visible. The yolk sac is visible from 5 weeks.
about 8 weeks of development. At this stage, the major organs have formed and the embryo starts to resemble a human being.
I knew I was having a boy at 14 weeks. It's all dependent on how your baby is positioned. My sister wasn't able to tell what her first kid was because she (the fetus) had her legs crossed during the ultrasound. :-) It's also a lot easier (for obvious reasons) to tell if it's a boy than if it's a girl. I found out that I was having a boy at 15 weeks!!!! But it just depends on how the baby cooperates with the ultrasound tech. The earliest a doctor will have a radiologist determine gender is about 12 weeks. Most wait until week 16 through week 20. Determining gender by radiology is not an exact science. A fetus could be in a position where it is difficult to see the genitals. Your radiologist may attempt to coax the fetus into another position where it is more visible. You could also consume something containing sugar, such as juice, (no caffeine!) which will make the fetus somewhat more active. Amniocentesis, if you must have one completed, is fool-proof in determining gender of the fetus through chromosomal testing.
Sometimes you could miscarry very early, but the body doesn't reject the fetus like it should. It does happen. My aunt thought she was 20 weeks pregnant, but when she went for an ultrasound fetus died many weeks earlier
