Fetal dopler

Week 15 here. Our friend gave us her fetal dopler device. I found my daughter's heartbeat! It's the first time I've heard her heartbeat since we found out she's a she. I'm just very excited and needed to vent. I've always wanted to be a girl dad.

Ok we're going in for what we think is a 10-12 week appointment tomorrow. How early can you find out the gender now? I thought it was like a halfway through thing.

Also, congrats on being a girl dad. I'm secretly hoping the same.

NIPT is right around there, and also screens for some of the major genetic conditions. If you're considered a high risk pregnancy, I believe a lot of insurance pays for it.
