NT/1ST Trimester Screening

I've heard of several ladies who indicate the sex of their baby was determined during their NT/1ST Trimester Screen ultrasound.  I've heard you generally find this out at 18+ weeks.  Anyone been able to find this out eariler or at the screening ultrasound?  I'm so excited to find out!!

I promise I will let you know if the doctor was right about it being two girls, but we dont have the CVS results yet.  NT and CVS was done by specialist this past Wednesday, and I have to wait 12-14 days for the final results.  That means Monday, the 23rd!

We got the preliminary results of the CVS which said no chromosomal abnormalies :) !!!!!  and I asked about the sex because I thought maybe they could confirm that too now.  And and she said since they did the chromosome tests, they do know the sex but that she is not allowed to give out that information until I am in 14th week (that is because abortion is legal here up until the 14th week without any reason necessary.  After the 14th week you have to have a strong reason like deformity of child or threat to health of mother, etc.  So to prevent people from having abortions based on sex of child, they wont tell anyone until the 14th week!)
