Thanks! I was told it’s about 75% accurate at 12 weeks with some room to change. Does this sound about right?

While it's surely better than going into a 12 week ultrasound and seeing a ding dong, it's not acceptibly accurate at this point and so while encouraging for pink, please do not consider this baby a girl yet.

I have seen too many people who did and ended up either very sad for several weeks thinking the baby they hoped was a boy, was a girl (only to end up happy in the end) or worse, people who got their hopes sky high only to have the rug pulled out from under them when it turned out to have been a boy all along.

But how did you find out, though? You posted this only a week or so ago - have you had another scan, or did you get NIPT results?

Huge congrats, I just get nervous when people post early ultrasounds because I've seen them be wrong so often.
