It would be much better if the mother uses the washroom before doing an ultrasound as she feels more comfortable and can cooperate more.

Getting Ready for gender reveal Ultrasoundįor performing gender reveal ultrasound as the baby is usually more than 13 weeks, we don’t need a full bladder. This is true about gender reveal ultrasound as well. If the sonographer is licensed, he has advanced knowledge of obstetrics and gynecology and knows the ultrasound machine can definitely get better photos and videos. Our new machine can show you the best videos and photos. In this case, the accuracy of diagnosis will be more than old, out of date machines. The new machines work according to new medical engineering standards and can provide us with clear, precise, detailed images. The clarity of the images is directly dependent on the ultrasound machine. Another factor that is important is the co-operation of the mother during the ultrasound session. Women with higher BMI ( Body Mass Index) should wait till the baby gets bigger and the organs develop more to have more accurate results. In normal or average size women, we can do Gender Reveal Ultrasound from 13 weeks onwards, even in some cases 12 weeks. This is true, especially in lower gestational age.
In this case, the accuracy of gender reveal ultrasound may be less and the clarity of 3D 4D ultrasound images may not be sharp enough.
If the mother is obese, her BMI is high and the abdominal wall is thick, the penetration of ultrasound through the abdominal wall will be more difficult. We also need enough amount of amniotic fluid around the baby’s genitalia to get better results.īaby Girl – The arrow show Hamburger Sign Mother’s factors
When the baby is large we may see the baby’s genitalia in 3D 4D ultrasound if the baby’s position is good enough. Usually, 2D ultrasound works much better in gender reveal especially when the baby is small. So, we may need to wait for a long time until the baby moves to an appropriate position. In this case, if genitalia is not surrounded by enough amniotic fluid, gender detection will be more difficult. when the pregnancy reaches to the end, the baby curls up and bends, so, genitalia may get hidden under the legs, hands or other body parts. What we mentioned in the previous paragraph does not mean that at the end of pregnancy we can necessarily see the genitalia better than 15-16 weeks of pregnancy. Gender Reveal in different gestational ages in pregnancy We can reveal girls’ genitalia at more advanced gestational ages with more accurate. We shouldn’t see the penis and the testicles as well. These lines show the clitoris and the labia. In baby girls, we can see the Hamburger sign that is three parallel lines.
Boys during movement sometimes have an erection that causes them to be visualized better. In this case, it is seen better in comparison with female genitalia. When the baby is a boy the penis usually sticks out and floats in amniotic fluid. Gender Reveal can be done as early as 13 weeks of pregnancy and in some cases even at 12 weeks. In other words, if the baby opens the legs nicely and is in a better position in relation to the ultrasound probe, the sonographer can see the baby’s gender more accurately. If the baby is boy, more advanced in gestational age, moves better and floats in more amniotic fluid, gender reveal will be performed with more precision. We can divide them to baby’s factors, mother’s factors, machine factors, amount of amniotic fluid, the position of the placenta and sonographer’s factors Gender reveal ultrasound in boys How accurate is Gender Reveal Ultrasound? This question doesn’t have a straight forward answer. No doubt that at the beginning of each pregnancy one of the first questions that come to the parents’ mind is the baby’s gender. Some people mistakenly say gender determination ultrasound while we don’t determine the baby’s gender. Gender Reveal Ultrasound is one of the most popular ultrasounds that is performed in private ultrasound centers.
