Ramzi Theory: can you tell me whats what?

[BabyCakes]

Hi ladies, had a scan today at 6 weeks

Scan: transvaginal
Plane: sagital
Orientation: my right side is on the right and my left side is on the left of the picture.


Any one who is comfortable to help explain your guess.

Many thanks!2253922540

If the right side of the photo is your right side, since baby is on that side (and most likely placenta is right there near baby) I'm guessing boy. Yours looks similar to what my second son's looked like at 6 weeks. I don't put a ton of stock into Ramzi's theory though as I have two boys and my first boy was on the left side and he's clearly a boy.

Could be a boy

Hi ladies,

I am a little confused, are you saying that you see the placenta forming to the right of the baby?

I just cant see anything?

Thank you for explaining.

Alot of times the baby gets looked at but unless you can see the formation of the placenta or AT LEAST the cord running to the wall you cant go on where the baby is alone. On this the baby is on the right but your actual placenta which is what the theory is based on is on your left, highlighted here which would put it as a girl.

Dear All,

I have a new pic. Taken at 7 weeks and 3 days. Internal and Sagital?

Are your Ramzi interpretations the same? Thank you!!

guessing boy!

If it's a true position the placenta formation is still on the left for girl

[BabyCakes]

Thanks All!

Nahri, do you still think the placenta is on the left? It all looks the same to me and you seem to know a bit more than me :think:


Thank you as always xoxoxoox

[Nahri]

yup that thicker part sticking out that is all wavy looking instead of smooth is the placenta.

Nahri, thank you so much. I really appreciate your input.

I have been googling how to be able to determine where the placenta is on early scans and I cant find any info. How did you learn to see where the placenta is?

I totally get the theory but sometimes when the placenta is indicated, I cant tell why its that ring as opposed to the ring on the otherside which looks as thick and feathery?

Any tips?

[Nahri]

Indentation is usually the big give away. The contrast on your scan is all over the place but usually the placenta shows up a different shade than the wall and you can pick it out easily from that too but not on yours. Like this one for example this is one of mine and an example of why you have to know what direction is being shown with sagittal. This one is saggital but the right side of the screen is actually the bottom (the dark space behind the baby girls head is my bladder) The uterus wall outlined in light pinky red and the placenta in purple. you can see the indent and the color difference. 22790

And here is another showing why you cant put too much stock in Ramzi.. This is my DS ultrasound from 9w3d. outlined in blue is the placenta formation on the left (girl) and I can most certainly still say at 2.5 years old hes very much a boy lol22791

Thanks so much! I still find it hard to spot. You must have quite the trained eye ;)

Congrats on your little girl! I read your sway and it was amazing! Commitment!!

Really appreciate your responses!

[Nahri]

Thanks! It was definitely a big change for both of us to go vegetarian for that long!

[BabyCakes]

You were right Nahri, baby is a confirmed GIRL!

THANK YOU!!
