    Can anything be guessed on an ultrasound at 9w4d?

    I'm not sure what can be seen in these but thought I'd post just for fun.

    I know we talked already but just wanted to make sure this had a response:

    Boys and girls are physically identical at this stage of gestation. The Y chromosome is dormant and has not started making testosterone. This happens in the 10th week of gestation. Then it takes 2-3 weeks for the stuff that LOOKS like girly bits in a boy at 9 weeks, to become testicles and a penis, and this process starts to become clearly visible late in the 12th week or better still, the 13th week gestation. That's when we can sometimes tell gender from a nub (but even then not super reliable till 15-18 weeks)

    Yeah, unfortunately my scan is 12wks so I don't think I'll get a good nub shot. I have an elective at 15wks.
