You can tell the instant the sperm meets the egg which sex it's going to be, hence the big brou ha ha about selective IVF and people chosing the sex of their children. I highly doubt they would know the sex either right now (or at least be reporting it), but there are ways to tell this early on in a pregnancy.

And I still can't believe they're telling everyone at 9 weeks. There are too many things that could happen this early on, especially with twins. Hell, when I get pg, Mr. ISUKappa and I are definitely not alerting the national media until well after 12 weeks!
