When is baby's gender determined, which month?

The real reply from the in-app AI advisor

Baby's gender is usually determined around 4 months through a detailed ultrasound (anatomy scan) done between weeks 16-20 of pregnancy. In some cases, an early hint can be seen at 14-15 weeks, but week 20 is the most reliable time for a definitive answer. The most important factor in determining gender is the baby's position during the ultrasound—a baby with legs crossed can make getting a clear image harder. Rarely, gender can be determined as early as weeks 11-13 through a blood test, which works by analyzing fetal DNA in a blood sample taken from the mother.
