Gender is at around 20 weeks!! you can book a private scan but thats at 17 weeks i think!!

Also bloods arent that bad dont worry i was terried of getting my blood taken but theres quite a few bloods during pregnancy well i had quite a feww dont worry!

ask to lay on the bed during bloods! (they usually ask anyway)i also hate it but it also feels so much better laying! i got my private gender scan at 15 weeks

I got my NIPT test and found out the gender. I’m 12 weeks! They say to wait until after 10 weeks for the most accuracy! You can ask to take it at your next appointment. I trained to be a phlebotomist best tip would be to read something while you’re getting your blood drawn and don’t watch!

NIPT test is usually to find out the health of your baby, it can be kind of expensive I have more information about it if you’re interested, but they can tell you your gender as well

You can get a private scan done from 12 or 13 weeks but they're not 100% accurate x

I did a blood test with my baby at 8 weeks and it was accurate for me!
