15 weeks and 1 day gender scan... what to do please??

I have an appointment at a 3d/4d ultrasound place tomorrow for a gender determination scan. I will be 15 weeks and 1 day. I will be getting a 2d scan. The place I am going to guarantees their results. When I called she said that being 15 weeks and 1 day is not a problem at all and she is certain that she will be able to tell me the baby's gender. They do gender scans starting at 14 weeks! I am nervous and excited. I just am really hoping that she tells me the gender correctly. We are traveling almost 2 hours to this place. I REALLY want to do it, and the lady sounded so sure of herself.... gosh... what to do??? Would you do it??

Thank you for any help!!

I would wait a couple more weeks, especially if you are traveling 2 hours away! Isn't 15 weeks a little early? I know it is hard to wait, but that is what I would do.

I would do it. I strongly believe that if you have a good tech, you can tell. Of course there are variables...like baby being in right position and stuff. If anything, if she is SOO sure, then if she can't tell at the appt., then maybe she'd refund your $$? I know it's along drive...but I long to hold DH hostage in a car alone so we can 'talk' LOL!!! Good luck!

This. If they normally do gender scans from 14 weeks, they should be able to make a pretty accurate guess if you are 15 weeks. I had one at 14 weeks with my last baby and there was no doubt that he was a boy.

There is a 2d/4d ultrasound clinic near me also, i went there when my girlfriend who was 15w pg, and she was told the gender, it turned out to be correct, and the tech was certin at the time.

I replied to your message but I would do it - mine was at 16 weeks. If you're going to have other scans in your pregnancy that will confirm it that would make me even more likely to go!

I would go for it! I'm getting an elective gender scan. At my facility they won't do the scan before 16 weeks.
