Can a sex be determined at 17 weeks pregnant?

Yes, the sex of a baby can usually be determined at 17 weeks pregnant through an ultrasound scan. By this stage of pregnancy, the external genitalia of the fetus are usually well-developed enough to be seen on an ultrasound, allowing the sonographer to determine whether the baby is male or female. However, it's important to note that in some cases, the position of the fetus or other factors may make it difficult to obtain a clear view of the genitalia, resulting in uncertainty about the sex. In such instances, a follow-up ultrasound may be recommended to confirm the sex.
