Im 17 weeks now and just curious matlab can the doctor even tell at this stage? I know they dont disclose it here, but technically is the baby visible enough? Just asking out of curiosity na.
Actually, even the premium hospitals have very strict rules and signs everywhere about gender detection being illegal. You can clearly ask your doctor about the baby's growth and development during the anomaly scan, but they won't disclose gender.
It is totally natural to be curious and anxious to know, same here! But honestly, gender detection is strictly illegal in India under PCPNDT laws, so no hospital will tell you. Focus on your 20-week anomaly scan instead, that is the main one.
When I was at my parents' house, my mom always said boy or girl doesn't matter, only baby's health does. Plus, in India, checking the gender is not allowed legally. Just enjoy your pampering at ghar pe!
Aww, I completely understand the excitement to know who is growing inside you! But legally we cannot find out the baby's gender in India. Just pray for a healthy baby, that feeling of holding them is out of this world anyway.
