View Full Version : Should I have another scan for reassurance??

Hi all, not been on here for a while but as my due date approaches I am struggling with nerves a bit. At 13 weeks I was told 90% girl (with 100% girl guesses on here), confirmed girl at 17 weeks through private gender scan (see attached). At my anomaly scan the tech said girl, but honestly didn't seem to take a good look, more a 'quick glance'. I could have a 4D 'bonding scan' but its $180, we could afford to do this, but christmas is coming and honestly, there are a million other things I ought to spend the money on more. Most people know that 'its a girl' and my mom has gone to town buying pink (I can't bring myself to!). I am just frightened that a boy will appear, and while I could have dealt with that if that had been the case all along, I don't know how that would be on delivery day. In my job I see newborns, so know that wrong gender on ultrasound does happen sometimes. What to do?! Am I crazy (cos my husband thinks I am lol)

If you want to ease your mind, go for another scan. To me this looks like a girl. Congrats :)

Can who is good with scans explain what I am looking at, I am not good with scans and sometimes think the two white 'bulgy' bits look like testicles! This is what makes me nervous esp as other girlie scans don't seem to have this. Thank you in advance :)
