    I think for the best accuracy, 10 weeks seems like the benchmark and there is room for error before that. MaterniT21, Harmony and Panorama are the main 3.

    I'd ask your OB or google. Not sure.

    Ok, I've looked it up and I'll need a referral from my doc. Or specialist.

    An amino can tell you the gender but there are risks and many docs won't do them electively.

    I don't know where in Aust you are, but in Perth there was one place that did it and it cost a lot, like $1000? Cause it is other tests with it. It may be less now, but also you had to wait 2 or 3 weeks for results.

    I went to an early ultrasound place and got definite confirmation at 14 weeks, it was called fetal photos and cost $100.

    Glory, I was really hoping to tell before 10 weeks. After that I could tell quite well with my 3rd at the 13 week scan. I was wondering if there's a blood test for like 6 weeks lol

    There is no earlier test and it does take a week or two to get results.

    Sydney Ultrasound does the Harmony Test for $520 now ... you need a referral and 10 weeks is the earliest you can have the test with results 2 weeks later, so you have the results when the baby is around 12 weeks.
