The revelation of the baby's gender always brings parents a sense of surprise and joy. Girls are often considered sweet, while boys are handsome, but regardless of gender, children are always the softest part in the hearts of their parents. Many new parents have questions about how many weeks into pregnancy the gender can be determined, and they also doubt the accuracy of gender prediction methods. Here are answers to five common questions about fetal gender.

  1. **When is the fetal gender determined?**

   The gender of the fetus is determined at conception. Around the 12th week, the reproductive organs begin to develop, allowing the gender to be observed through ultrasound. However, this also depends on the baby's cooperation. Some babies may cover important parts with the umbilical cord or thighs, making gender determination difficult.

 **Ultrasound Prediction**

   When the baby reaches 12-13 weeks, the gender can be predicted through ultrasound. It is advisable to conduct multiple ultrasound checks at different stages to improve accuracy. The further along in the pregnancy, the more accurate the prediction becomes.

  1. **Blood Test**

   If parents are eager to know the baby's gender, a blood test is a more accurate method. Blood tests can avoid the influence of the baby's position on the results, but there are legal restrictions on predicting gender through blood tests in some areas, so local regulations must be followed.

    1. **Amniocentesis**

       Pregnant women over the age of 34 often need to undergo amniocentesis. This method not only checks for chromosomal issues but also determines the baby's gender, providing a reliable examination.

    1. **Gender Prediction and Folk Tales**

       Folk tales, such as the shape of the belly or changes in taste preferences, have no scientific basis for predicting fetal gender. Gender is determined by genes; the shape of the belly and changes in taste preferences are related to the fetus's position and the mother's physical condition, not the gender.

    In summary, the gender of the fetus can be determined through ultrasound, blood tests, and amniocentesis. Multiple checks should be conducted to improve accuracy. Understanding these common issues can help parents feel more at ease as they prepare to welcome their new baby.
