My mother-in-law used to guess based on my belly shape, but scientifically it is fixed from day one. In India, gender disclosure is illegal, so please focus on your doctor's advice for a safe delivery instead.
It is decided at conception, but we can't find out in India due to the laws. Sometimes I get so curious and anxious about planning the nursery, does anyone else also feel super impatient about this?
The baby's gender is fixed by chromosomes right at the start. Please remember that checking the gender before birth is a major crime in India, so just discuss your baby's growth and health with your gynac.
Biologically, the gender is decided at the moment of conception itself. But in India, it is strictly illegal to find out or ask the doctor before birth, so we only got to know when our healthy baby was born!
It is decided right away, but you won't know till delivery because gender tests are illegal in India. Save your money for baby shopping and hospital package planning instead of trying to find unauthorized tests!
