[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Many women do know the gender by then because of the NIPT you can do in the first trimester.

I had a preemie and the tech asked me a thousand questions about it. If you had pprom without contractions v with v incompetent cervix matters. Whether you have a uterine abnormality matters. I would expect a lot of questions from the tech.

Maybe she was drunk. I don’t know. But the two things above would not make me think that. [/quote]

This x10000.

First, in 2019 most people I know have done genetic testing bloodwork and know the gender early. Even those who have not had issues or are of advanced age seem to be getting it done, so that's likely what she meant when she said most people already know.

And if you have had any issues, losses, high risk factors, preemie, or low birth weight full term deliveries - they will ask you 100000 questions about what you know.  Maybe your doctor did some testing and told you after the baby was born that they think xyz is the reason the baby was premature - or like in my case very tiny.  They have to ASK you those questions because they don't know what you know and whatever you can tell them helps them know what things they especially want to focus on to prevent it from happening again.  If you do't know, that's perfectly okay, but she has to ask. Sounds to me like she was being thorough.[/quote]
