With Nickolas, I didn't find out (for sure) I was pg until @11 weeks (not stupid, long story). Because they had me classified as a high rick pregnancy they did an ultasound right away. I could see his spine, his internal organs...very cool. It was at that moment that I really came to terms that there was a little person growing in me.
They did another one later to make sure everything was still ok. Up to that point everyone (except David and one of the doctors my mom worked with) was telling me I was having a girl. He was in the fetal position sleeping. The tech woke him up and we could see him stretch. His feet went up over his head and we watched him move his hands as he began to play with his toes. Then the tech showed us the little "snail" poking out near his rump. He was def a boy. I cried, then felt guilty that I had cried.
There is nothing like an ultra sound when you can see everything happening inside you.
With my 2nd pregnancy they had an ultra sound (the icky internal one) already schedualed when I started spotting. It was painful and the tech was very rude. I was not just crying, but bawling all the way through it and even thoung she knew the baby was already gone she refused to tell me. She also refused to let my mom into the room with me.
