Advances in Knowledge
This study contributes to advances in knowledge by understanding the history of fetal gender and the ethical dilemma of choosing or detecting fetal gender at first trimester of the pregnancy. It gives new prospective and method to detect fetal gender as early as possible to better manage some genetic disease which can be found in male or female fetuses. Thus, gives the parent the choice of what to do, and gives the gynaecologist’s and genetic counsellors the ability to manage, discuss and guide the parents to better management of the fetus.

This study might be used in the veterinary medicine to help endanger species and to increase the probability of conceiving male or female of certain specious. It also increases the skills of the sonographers and Radiologists to detect fetal gender by applying this method. It might also be used as a genetic soft marker when bilateral pyelectasis is present. This study will opens the door toward new and radical understanding of the female uterus.

Application to Patient Care
The application to patient care is in the knowledge gained by physicians, genetic counsellors and researchers that can be applied from the sonographers/sonoliogists ability to detect fetal gender as early as possible especially in families with genetic disorders that can be found in male or female fetuses. It will enhance the sonographer’s ability to correlate the finding with other genetic soft markers such as renal pyelectasis.

This study may help parents to decide and choose the type of medical management available in case of inherited genetic problem such as in X-linked genetic disorder.
This study might not be for all patients but definitely for those who want to know and prepare their life and finances and for those who have a genetic problem, which can inflect one gender than the other.

Abstract
The aim of this study is to determine the relationship between placental /chorionic villi laterality and fetal genders early in pregnancy using 2-D ultrasonography and color flow Doppler.

Material and Method
This is a multi-center prospective cohort study of 5376 pregnant women that underwent ultrasonography from 1997 to 2007. Trans-vaginal sonograms were performed in 22% of the patients at 6 weeks gestation, and Trans-abdominal sonograms were used at 18-20 weeks gestation, at this time the fetal gender were confirmed in 98-99%. The fetal sex was confirmed 100% after delivery. The study also addressed the bicornuate uteri with single pregnancy in relation to placenta / chorionic villi location. The result was tabulated according to gender and placenta / chorionic villi location. Bicornuate uteri with single fetus in different horns were studied and tabulated

Result
Dramatic differences were detected in chorionic villi / placental location according to gender. 97.2% of the male fetuses had a chorionic villi/placenta location on the right side of the uterus whereas, 2.4% had a chorionic villi/placenta location to the left of the uterus. On the other hand 97.5% of female fetuses had a chorionic villi/placenta location to the left of the uterus whereas, 2.7% had their chorionic villi/placenta location to the right side of the uterus.127 cases were found to involve bicornuate uteri with single foetuses, most male fetuses were located in the right horn of the uterus and showed right placental laterality (70%). Most female fetuses 59% on the other hand, were located in the left horn and showed left laterality (59%).Moreover, most of the males located in the left horn exhibited right laterality (89%). Also most females located in right horn exhibited left laterality (976.4%). In addition this research indicated that there was a possible link between renal pyelectasis and placental location, and it might be used as a genetic soft marker.

Conclusion
Ramzi’s method is using placenta /chorionic villi location as a marker for fetal gender detection at 6 weeks gestation was found to be highly reliable. This method correctly predicts the fetus gender in 97.2% of males and 97.5% of females early in the first trimester. And it might be helpful to use as a genetic soft marker in relation with fetal pyelectasis.

Wow didn't realise it was so accurate!

[wantingson]

I think its pretty accurate only when we do the guess based on the placenta location that too betweek 6 - 8 weeks.

I think in most of the forums they guess based on the baby's location.

[KnockYourBallsOff]

My 6 week 4 day u/s looks like the 'female' example on this study and dr. comfirmed baby was on left...but didn't confirm placenta location... but I have a concentration of white like on this pic. I still just can't let myself get excited....

But ramzi method is all about placenta positon right?

[KnockYourBallsOff]

^^yes. The 'white' concentration on teh ultrasound was what I interpreted to be future placenta from Dr. Ramzi's actual study that I found online. Agian, it's still a guess for me. I'd post a pic, but I'm so sick these days, I just don't feel like it.

[Irishmom]

Sorry I'm confused. ( wouldnt be hard with mush brain lately lol).I have an early scan next week and I would like to ask the doctor about ramzi theory.

What should I ask him? What side the baby is on or what side the placenta is on? Thanks.;)

[Butterfly Spirit]

When I did my research I looked it up on the internet and it lead me to babycenter.com and many MANY ladies had the opposite of what the Ramzi theory says. I now personally wouldn't take too much stock in it. :)

The problem is, unless the doctor/tech is trained in Ramzi's theory, they really can't give you a straight answer. Because, is it my right, or your right?? Is it the baby or the placenta?? There's so much wiggleroom for misinterpretation and miscommunication that even when you can persuade a tech to tell you something, it may not even be accurate or helpful.

[dloui128]

how can you even tell where the placenta is that early?

[MissMyChem]

My Ramzi says boy but the skull method says girl. I don't know which one to go on lol

[PrincessX3]

My ramzi was girl, but at 20 weeks found out we are having a boy.

[Rosie85]

I have heard many people getting confused over this theory. I do know it needs to be between 6-8 weeks. It should be done trans-vaginally as that is the true picture...as in left is left and right is right. I think it doesn't matter about the placenta because baby will be on the side of the placenta that early no matter what---they are not free floating yet. If they are floating you can't do the method period.

I have a scan in about 10 days, I will ask the tech what she knows. My friends and I have been looking into this method and it is interesting for sure. I believe it is accurate if the person reading the scans and taking the scans know what they are talking about and looking for.

[lucy_x]

Hi guys, Just curious really, Has any one cramped really badly on the side that their placenta (or implantation) was happening? - i know with my last pregnancy i cramped persistently on my left side until 14 weeks, True enough, there was the placenta and my baby was Female.

This time, im Cramping badly on my left side again, but dont know the gender or placental position yet...Just wondering if anyone had had similar experiences or wether i just cramp that side in every pregnancy haha

[Daffodilly]

This is weird you posted this!! I can feel when I ovulate and I KNOW I ovulated from the left side. I felt implantation pinches/twinges on the left side and the first few weeks of pregnancy, 90% of my cramping was on the LEFT side...so much so, I was worried about an ectopic for awhile (thankfully I was wrong). I am not sure of the gender of this baby yet, but my other 2 were boys and I had no cramping on a certain side with them, it was just all over general cramping :)

[Rosie85]

I had cramping on my left side too and was told baby is to the left, I am hoping it is an indication and that it means girl for me!

[lucy_x]

Hope so hun!

Im almost positive i felt implantation that side, both with this pregnancy and with my last, Wont know what this one is for another week though :(

[twinkitty2]

I have an us pic from this gestation, it was transvaginal, so does that mean that if the baby is on the left, of the pic, then it is on the left of my uterus? If the baby is on the left, does that mean the placenta will be on the left as well? So far the dr.s have said it is in the back.

[MamaCass85]

How can we determine where the placenta is?

[_proudmommyx2]

I've been reading about this all week, im super obsessed.! It is best to look at scans that are between 6 and 8 weeks. usually the placenta isn't formed this early (at least not for us to recognize it on u/s) so unless u remember if your dr or sonographer told u the placenta's location, another visible way to use this method is by locating the yolk sac. If you type in razmi yolk sac on google you'll get some good visuals of what they look like. You can use the location of the yolk sac in place of the placenta, because the yolk sac will be absorbed by the placenta once it begins to function on its own. If you had the scan done transvaginally the yolk on the right would indicate a boy and to the left would indicate a girl (hence, it is a true image.) With abdominal scans, you have to reverse what you see. If you see the yolk sac on the left, it is actually on the right (boy) and if you spot it on the right, it is actually on the left (girl). some ppl will use the location of the baby if they cant spot the yolk sac on their u/s based on the idea that the baby cant stray too far from that yolk sac because it is connected by the fetal pole?

[_proudmommyx2]

How can we determine where the placenta is?

do you have an early 6-8wk u/s? if you do, see if you can locate the yolk sac, it generally looks like a hollow circle with a white rim to it. use the location of that to determine in place of the placenta, because it may not be easy to spot. however, i've read that the placenta looks like a dense mass of white lines on the u/s which it all looks like dense white lines to me. I had a transvag u/s at 7 wks and i believe i spotted the yolk sac above my baby which is tucked all the way to the right (boy)

[Mae]

5234This is 7week 0 days, transvag us. Boy or girl??

[cvd]

Had my ultrasound today and he told me left :) I didn't even ask cause I thought he'd just laugh! I hope it's right for me!!! EEEK

[rockstar]

i am not sure its completely right but 75% right and right in my both pregnancies

[Life In Pink]

You have to have a tech that can tell you where the placenta is located. Most do not know or understand this theory so its hard to guess!

[babywishes1]

6018I am having the hardest time with my ultrasound! I cannot tell where the heck the placenta is because it really seems to be all around LOL. Any ramzi guesses for fun? We are green team and due Feb 4th. PRAYING hard for a little lady.

Oh & this was transvaginal.

[lisvna]

Skull and ramzi were both wrong for me.....

[Nich27]

6415just had an transvaginal ultrasound today can someone tell me their thoughts based on the ramzi theory? It looks like the one of the female

[Roseoo]

Hi,

This is the pic i have from my 12 week ultrasound.
Can Ramzi theory be applied to this, coz i dont think the placenta location changes much in the time period of 8 -12 weeks.

This is abdominal ultrasound.

Please post if someone could determine the gender from any of the theories , let it be Ramzi, Skull or nub :)

Thanks

[Minismommy]

Looks like nub is straight up! It's a boy!

[Jadis]

Question-can Ramzi's theory be applied past 8 weeks gestation? I'm 13 weeks and just found out that my placenta is located on the left. Would this still suggest a girl or is the theory null and void after 8 weeks? Any thoughts please?

[Mbmk]

Mae, Babywishes and Nich - they all look the same as my transvaginal u/sound at 7 weeks - I'm hoping girl too! :)

[Mum23boys]

wow have just come across this on my scan screen last week at 6 weeks twin on th eleft was on the left side and the tiwn on the right was on the right side exactly as per those photos on page 1 but just slightly smaller and higher up the side walls so going on that i am carrying Boy Girl twins.... we will see in 33 weeks

[Nich27]

Very curious what your thoughts/ guess would be on my scan.

[BabyCakesTor]

Does it have to be a transvaginal scan?

[Linners]

Hi there. Really hoping someone will take a guess at my scan please? Left side of image = right side of body and vice versa. Thank you so much x

[HopefulMonster]

No idea how true this is but I was told by an ultrasound tech that it is almost impossible to tell off any scan picture so you can only really find out which side if you ask at the time of having your scan, and not work it out from a scan photo.
It was accurate for me though, my placenta at 6w+3 was left anterior.

[Mummyof3]

7872Hi everyone, i am new to this sight and just wanted to add my pic for guesses. I feel like this is a pretty clear and straightforward pic? This was an abdominal ultrasound done at 7 weeks. You can see the yolk sac with baby attatched and i am pretty sure the whitish area under and to the left of the baby is the placenta? That would mean reverse the pic and it's a boy!? Any guesses would be really appreciated! :-)

[Girlsway]

Hi there. Really hoping someone will take a guess at my scan please? Left side of image = right side of body and vice versa. Thank you so much x

I'd guess a girl!

[HappyMedium]

7917

This is straight forward. Baby implanted on right and placenta is on the left. Hoping for a girl. I asked Tech and she explained.

had an u/s yesterday at 8w1d and this tech said her screen was reversed...so I HAVE NO EFFING IDEA ANYMORE...She said BOTH transvaginal and abdominal are reversed but she did not print any pics so I cannot say for sure which side baby was on...she barely let me see the screen. I think it depends on how they hold the wands.

Hi.Im newbie and want to say everybody-thank you for this forum!İts realy kind and Im very happy to regist in this.This is ultrasound pictuare of my baby on 6 weeks.Any guess?Thank you very much

[tictac2000]

Hello can anyone guess the gender from my scan pic please taken at 7 weeks transvaginal. Thanks xxx

[Smile]

:babym: this answer for me?Thank you)

[Falling2Grace]

So im kind of confused. When Ramzi tested this theory and he said placenta to the left = girl and placenta to the right = boy, was he referring to HIS left/right or the patients left/right? Lets assume tranvaginal here with the image not flipped.

[Nursee]

In Nursing it is always the patients right or left. Hope this helps.

[Kiara]

In trans vaginal left on the screen is left in the uterus and right on the screen is right in the uterus? Or it depens on the screen? Maybe a stupid question but the pic in #1 the pictures are trans vaginal, right? but it looks like the right and left on the pictures are reverse?

[shiningstar]

Can anyone guess for me? This is a trans vaginal ultrasound.
TIA!!! :)

[dabbas]

Can u help to find the gender of the baby pleasee

[Mbmk]

Shining star - that looks like mine and I am having a girl :-)

[*ruby*]

Would anyone like to guess for me? This was a transvaginal ultrasound measuring 7w 2d. Tech said baby most likely came from left ovary and has implanted on the left, not sure about the placental location though.


9575

[*ruby*]

and another one

9576

[kaseybaby]

Here is my pic, if anyone wants to take a look. She said the baby was center, maybe rightish, so i am confused as to if the yolk sac is on the left or not. 9581

[*ruby*]

I'm not sure Kasey but hopefully someone who knows more will come in and have a look.

[shiningstar]

Shining star - that looks like mine and I am having a girl :-)

Thanks Mbmk!! Congrats on your girl!!! I hope I hear the same! :)

[kaseybaby]

I'm not sure Kasey but hopefully someone who knows more will come in and have a look.
It is driving me nuts, because I would think it is on the left, but then someone said right :D I just want to know lol

[Falling2Grace]

I dont really think anyone can tell from looking at these pics what the baby is UNLESS the tech told you were the location of the placenta was at the time of the u/s. There is just no way to know bc some machines mirror the image and some dont. With a click the tech can flip it. So there just isn't a way to know unless you were told which side it was on....i hated learning that though bc i wanted to know ASAP. Waiting stinks! hope you all get your DG <3

[harleyquinn]

*ruby*....your pics are labeled "sag" which means sagittal and Ramzi's study was based on transverse shots.

[*ruby*]

Oh really?! oh well.

4 weeks till my 12 week scan hopefully the wait goes quick

[StephStorm]

I am 6 weeks, 1 day ultrasound was transvaginal.

I got 2 pics that look very different. I asked nurse practictioner which side baby was on she said right. I swayed boy
any guesses??

Can someone guess mine please?! This was done abdominal at 6wks 4 days help!

[mellycine]

Hope this isn't a dumb question but just making sure.. Te gestational sac is not the placenta right? And the yolk sac is?

[Rose55]

Hi Ladies, I wish I would have known about this theory yesterday going into my ultrasound so I could have asked them questions but all I have is this picture done abdominally. Any guesses? Thanks1217412175

[LUVBEBI]

Do you have to ask the doctor to do this test? Do you think they will say you are crazy to believe such things and shut you down?

Feeling Blue - Boy

[chantalrdj]

9w3d (LMP) measuring 8w exactly.
Any Ramzi theory guesses?

[3littleladies]

Chantalrdj was this scan done via abdominal or transvaginally?

Abdominal - Girl
Transvaginally - Boy

[HopefulMonster]

I just wanted to say I've actually asked two ultrasound consultants and read many studies, and everything agreed that BOTH transvaginal and abdominal reverse the image, the only difference is if the image is transverse (where left shows right and right shows left ie. a true reversed image) or a saggital image which shows the left as anterior and the right as posterior, but with no ability to determine left or right just from the photo. The techs also have the ability to flip the images on screen, just to make it harder!

I think the best way to check would be to ask if your placenta is anterior or posterior. For example if baby is on the left and your placenta is anterior then it could be a saggital image with no ramzi clues and you cannot guess off the picture without knowing for sure which plane the image was taken in. If you have baby on the left and a posterior placenta you know it can't be a saggital image, so you can make an accurate ramzi guess, does that make sense?

[3littleladies]

Hopefulmonster that just confused me, so its not that easy to determine then!

[Nakiyasworld]

Top picture transvaginal bottom abdominal 9 weeks. Please help me I am so confused.

[3littleladies]

Nakiyasworld - Boy!

[Nakiyasworld]

3 little ladies- really you think so? What makes you guess that I'm so confused about this method.

[3littleladies]

Because in the transvaginal baby is on the right side and the abdominal the baby is pretty centred so Im going by the top one cause that's real clear.

Are you hoping for a boy?

[Nakiyasworld]

YES! I have 5 girls. But I am not getting my hopes up... I also read that all us images are mirrored. Idk anymore.

[3littleladies]

Oh wow, I really hope this is your boy! Only abdominal u/s's are mirrored!

[TTCaPRINCE]

14397

Had this u/s yesterday at 6 weeks 4 days. Everything was good. Saw the heartbeat. It was trans vaginal. Based off of ramzis theory would this be a boy or a girl?

[HopefulMonster]

Hopefulmonster that just confused me, so its not that easy to determine then!


Sorry I think I explained really badly! Basically, with 100% certainty, I had it confirmed that BOTH transvaginal and abdominal scans are mirror images, not just abdominal.

The reason for the confusion is because both abdominal and transvaginal scans can be done in two different planes/perspectives/views. One is called transverse and is most common, the other is called saggital.

In a transverse view, it is a pure mirror image, with left as right, and right as left.
In saggital view, left is anterior (so the front of your womb) and right is posterior (the back). In a saggital scan it is impossible to determine which side is left and which is right.

Problem is that you can't tell if a scan photo is taken in transverse plane or saggital plane, unless you ask at the time, if that makes sense.

(Unless you know if your placenta is posterior/anterior, and it is on the opposite side to where it should be for a saggital shot, meaning your shot must definitely be transverse) example, If I know my placenta is posterior, then if my scan is saggital it will show the placenta to the right, but my placenta is on the left in my scan pic, so it can't be a saggital shot and must be a transverse shot, meaning I can use ramzi on it because it's a mirror image with left and right.

[3littleladies]

Wow thanks for that, that explained it better for me, I think I wont be guessing anymore!

[HopefulMonster]

Aww no please don't quit guessing! It seems most scans are done in transverse so the mirror image way of guessing would still work just fine. It is only 97% accurate at the best of times so 3 out of every 100 scans will have the baby on the opposite side which is a lot really if you think how many thousands of women get scanned. Xxxxx

[luvlyjewels]

14457 What would mine be? 7 weeks 6 days

[3littleladies]

[luvlyjewels]

luvlyjewels boy!

I really hope you are WRONG 3littleladies

[3littleladies]

I really hope you are WRONG 3littleladies

Me to, but you see I use to think when it was transvaginal you don't mirror image the photo, so I would have said Girl for you, but hopefulmonster has made it clear that all u/s are mirror images.

Honestly don't lose hope because its definitely not always correct.

[luvlyjewels]

Honestly don't lose hope because its definitely not always correct.

You are right definitely could go the other way, I've had mixed opinions on ramzi. I have my nt scan next week and if I see a boyish nub then it'll be a little more definite.

[nuthinbutpink]

I received an email from "Dr Ramzi". I have no way to verify it is in fact Dr Ramzi but here is what he asked me to post-

Greeting to all of you...please note that it is not the baby position we look for. It is the placenta position to the sides not placenta height from cervix but the placenta sidedness is more to the right or more to the left side ? and that MUST be done in true transverse section, when you see the ultrasound picture the right side of the picture to you is the mother left side, and the left side of the picture to you is the mother right side. in trans abdominal scan, dont look at the position of the baby. and if you have trans vaginal scan it is the same reverse if the scan was done in pie shape where the widest angle is in the bottom, and if the technologist flip the image and make the widest part of the pie in the upper scan it is not mirror image any more. so please read the research carefully and enjoy , please remember that it is not the gender that important but it is your health and the health of the baby and the gender is just a bonus.

DR SAAD RAMZI ISMAIL, THE AUTHOR OF RAMZIS THEORY AND RESEARCH PAPER.ALBERTA- CANADA

He also says it is NOT accurate before 9 weeks because the placenta has not formed to see it on u/s.

toomanyboys
Here is my US from yesterday at 7 weeks 4 days ( baby measured 7 weeks 3 days). It was transabdominal!!! Please take a good look for me please I think at one point I seem to see the uterus as I think you can see the cervix going towards the right if viewed from the side and it seems like baby is lying on top of my cervix!!!! Please any experts out there or anyone with vast experience as I just never seem to have understood the ramsey theory!!!! Thanks in advance!!!

[HopefulMonster]

Toomanygirls, I'd have said girl, but that's based on baby's position, I can't tell where the placenta is so I don't know how accurate it is.

[toomanyboys]

Lol.....hopefulmonster...I wish I was toomanygirls but am toomanyboys instead.....thank you so much for your input....it's strange people post all their ramzy ultrasounds and get so many responses....I actually got a video of it you would think people would take more time to guess. If I knew how to recognize the positions and a bit more of a thorough understanding of ramzi theory which keeps giving me confusing info on the net I would figUre it out myself...but it's good to get a couple of opinions to see if the majority think the same. Thank you again.....:)

[mumtomany]

Hi I was just wondering if you could guess mine.
The first one is 8 weeks the 2nd is 10 weeks. At my 10 week scan she said my placenta was on the left and anterior. I was scanned on the tummy. 14947

Yes I do. I'm sure it is a he the pregnancy is a lot like my sons pregnancies.
Thank you x

[bunnywabbit]

I'm useless on Ramzi. The scan is 7+2 and transvaginal. The tech said I ovulated on the left and the baby settled on the left. Yolk sac on left on scan. What do you guys think?

15178

[DreamInBlue]

I'm not so great at this theory. Can anyone take a look at this and see what you think? This was 6 weeks, 5 days and was transvaginal. I am thinking maybe the yolk sac is in the top right w/the baby? So that would mean boy? Or maybe just wishful thinking, lol.

15337

[ashela]

anyone care to guess mine? This was an abdominal scan done at 7 weeks and 5 days.. further scans (11 weeks and 13 weeks) have both said that placenta is on the left hand side..15354

[Dynazyme]

I received an email from "Dr Ramzi". I have no way to verify it is in fact Dr Ramzi but here is what he asked me to post-

Greeting to all of you...please note that it is not the baby position we look for. It is the placenta position to the sides not placenta height from cervix but the placenta sidedness is more to the right or more to the left side ? and that MUST be done in true transverse section, when you see the ultrasound picture the right side of the picture to you is the mother left side, and the left side of the picture to you is the mother right side. in trans abdominal scan, dont look at the position of the baby. and if you have trans vaginal scan it is the same reverse if the scan was done in pie shape where the widest angle is in the bottom, and if the technologist flip the image and make the widest part of the pie in the upper scan it is not mirror image any more. so please read the research carefully and enjoy , please remember that it is not the gender that important but it is your health and the health of the baby and the gender is just a bonus.

DR SAAD RAMZI ISMAIL, THE AUTHOR OF RAMZIS THEORY AND RESEARCH PAPER.ALBERTA- CANADA

He also says it is NOT accurate before 9 weeks because the placenta has not formed to see it on u/s.

I am a bit confused. I know that the placenta is not formed before 9 weeks, that´s why you have to do doppler US. But I thougth the scan should be done between 6 and 8 weeks!? Isn´t the placenta moving at a later time?

It is NOT accuarte before 9 weeks?

[jmm0616]

I would love if someone would make a guess for me. I have two boys that both implanted in the bottom right. Had a 6 week vaginal ultrasound today and the baby was all the way at the top with the sac directly beneath it - not swayed to one side or the other... I am so confused!!!15557

She said my placenta was on the right

kimbie Im going with Little wee Man for you!

Kimbie placenta on the right would mean boy according to ramzi. What are you hoping for?

15178

I'm not an expert on Ramzi, but I'm thinking Girl :)

[aidansmum]

And since we are making guesses, this is my 9 week abdominal scan. I've read many times you flip the abdominal scan, but I'm still unsure if that's right. I also have the films (like x-ray type ones) and it shows baby blood flow towards the right of the picture as well, where the yolk sac is. I am very confused and would appreciate any guesses. 15916

[GT77]

mine was in the middle always!! I had a girl but I really do not believe in this theory since I ovulated from right side!! I hope you guys all get your desired gender!! Hope you guys get to hear soon, aidan everyone is telling u girl... that is a good sign!!

[signgirl]

Can I have help reading my u/s? It was transvaginal and done at 6 weeks and 3 days. I thought it was a good shot of my uterus, but maybe far away to read where the placenta mass is? I thought this further away, clearer shot of my uterus in its "bulb" shape may help, but I can't tell where the placenta is. I've been studying other sonograms and am VERY confused and have NO idea what it could be. HELP!

15927

[aidansmum]

hi signgirl, your bub seems to be right in the middle which makes it more complicated I guess, but I read a lot these last days about Ramzi and some women just take into account the yolk sac, which apparently would fuse with the placenta in the future, please don't hold me accountable as I have no idea if this is true, I also find it beyond difficult to locate a placenta that early and as far as I've read, they don't even exist yet (!?), that's why I wonder if this Ramzi thing makes any sense. Being a transvaginal they say you don't flip (also unsure if that's the case), in that case, judging by the yolk sac, I would say it's a boy because yolk sac is to the right. Hopefully this makes sense but once again, I do not know all the facts of Ramzi for sure, hope you get your desired gender.

Thanks so much for trying. All of my ultrasounds are pretty ambiguous. I was thinking boy all along, but skull theory looks like a girl. Would seriously be happy with either, but we have a girl name we love. Hopefully finding out soon. Thanks!

18202 this is my internal scan at 6+3..boy or girl?

[Rosie85]

boy?

[kylie90]

I haven't a clue lol first I've heard of this ramzi thing lol

[WantingPink]

So I have to admit that I don't really understand Ramzi's method. I mean I get the principle but is it my left or the person interpreting it?

That being said I was studying all my kids first uls scan last night and I noticed that both of my boys placenta seemed to be mostly on the same side (not sure if it is right or left IRL but it was left on the scan). Both of these scans were both done abdominally. Then I noticed that DD and this LO were both on the other side (taking into account they were done transvag which from what I understand is a true image and the abdominal is a flipped image) or at least that is how it appeared to be. Just wondering if anyone else has been as obsessive as me and tried to study their kids 1st ultrasound to predict the gender of their current?

[Mulberry Smurf]

Wanting the tech can flip the image so it's either a true image or mirror to suit the scan so the sidedness from the picture doesn't really tell us much it's where the placenta attaches and to know that you would need to ask your tech. That being said this baby could definitely be another little princess :) my second sons scan pic showed him being on the left at 8 weeks but I don't know whether the placenta was attached there, though I imagine it was. I asked the tech where the baby was and he said the left side but that may have meant 'if the image' not f my uterus. All too confusing for me haha xx

[WantingPink]

Well my tech for this one was a total B!! She wouldn't even tell me the placenta was anterior when it clearly WAS!! Then when she finally did tell me the placenta was anterior she looked at me and was like "well what does that matter". Well it matters because I have had 3 C-sections and I want to ask my Dr. about it!! I wanted to smack her with the vaginal probe:)

Anyway, she was no help however, the indicators (there is a M or a dot or some type of indicator and the top of most uls machines) that tells you the orientation of the image is the same for both this lo and DD and they were done at the same clinic. I was just wondering if anyone else had compared images. I agree that it is confusing and don't really understand what exactly to look for. Looks like you need a flow image anyway. I am just obsessing until I get my MaterniT21 results:)

[Mulberry Smurf]

How long??? Totally stalking you ;) I laughed at you wanting to hit her with the probe haha. You'd never feel clean again after being hit with one of those across the face!!! (No offence ;) haha) xx

[WantingPink]

Ha ha... right Mulberry!! Well I had MaterniT21 drawn Friday so I am hoping the results will be here this Friday or maybe sometime early next week. I love knowing the gender of the baby. I think it just helps me think about what they might look like and be like. Also with planning a room and clothes. It just kind of makes me feel a little closer to the baby in a weird way. I think women who wait have some WILL POWER!! I always say that it would be fun to wait but really I don't think I am that patient:)

[coocoobananas]

You should be getting them any day now, no?
Of course that is important! Not only for c sections but you feel less! It's important to know you might not feel the same things that you would typically with posterior!!

Lol at whacking he with the probe;)
Mine is anterior this time too:/ super bummed as that's 3 of 4. I did feel not with the 3rd than the 1st (both the anterior ones) but it's more exciting for the kids to see all the movement:(

Well my tech for this one was a total B!! She wouldn't even tell me the placenta was anterior when it clearly WAS!! Then when she finally did tell me the placenta was anterior she looked at me and was like "well what does that matter".

Sent from my GT-I9305T using Tapatalk

[Houseofblue]

The PP was right who said BOTH transvaginal and abdominal u/s's are done the SAME way (meaning both can be flipped!!). Found this on a BBC thread:

Ok, I'm a sonographer, let me see if I can clear some things up. The image on the screen is as if it is facing you (like the patient is facing the tech) therefore, on the screen the right side of the patient is on the techs left side, like a mirror image. It's like this on all imaging modalities (Xray, CT, MRI, etc) It doesn't matter if it is on the belly or transvaginal the image on the screen shows the right side of the patient on the left side of the monitor or screen. Also, it doesn't matter how the tech has the transducer (wand) we have the capabilities to "flip" the image upside down, rightside up and flip it left to right by just pressing a button on the machine. Now keep in mind we scan in two planes...longitudinal and transverse, so yes it would be difficult for you to decipher if you are looking from head to toe or right side to left side without a tech explaining it to you, nothing on the screen indicates when we are doing this other than the words we type on the screen. And just to make things more complicated, sometimes I have to scan on the patients left side of their body to see things on the right inside of them and vice versa...kinda like standing on one side of the room and shining a flashlight to the otherside of the room....and you thought all we did was wave a wand around and press some buttons...lol. I know this is all very confusing, but try to trust that the person doing your scan knows what they are doing (as long as they have been properly trained that is, you'd be amazed at who might be doing your scan if you don't ask). Always make sure your tech is trained and registered with the ARDMS, then you'll know they know what they are doing

And this:

THE LEFT OF THE IMAGE/SCREEN SHOWS THE PATIENT'S RIGHT FOR BOTH TRANSVAGINAL & ABDOMINAL

Transvaginal ultrasounds and abdominal ultrasounds do NOT differ in their perspectives.

For BOTH, the view on the image/screen is from the perspective of the sonographer.

*** This means that the left of the image of the image/screen is the patient's right, while the right of the image of the image/screen is the patient's left. ***

This applies to transverse ultrasounds (which is the typical type of scan at 6 weeks).
(Sagittal ultrasounds show neither left nor right).

Please refer to www.mainehealth.org/em_body.cfm?id=...

Technically, the sonographer can flip the image, so ask if it's a true transverse if you would like to be sure.

OTHER NOTES ON THE RAMZI METHOD

It's about whether the placenta is starting to form (not where the fetus is). You can take a guess from your ultrasound pic, but the only way to KNOW where it's forming is to have an ultrasound that shows the blood flow (which is what Ramzi used).

If the placenta is forming on the right (which will be left on the image/screen), then it indicates a boy.

If the placenta is forming on the left (which will be right on the image/screen), then it indicates a girl.

THANK YOU. PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD! :)

*Please excuse me if I'm reviving an old post. I'm trying to kill the false internet rumour by responding to posts which appear high up on relevant Google searches.

My 8 week scan shows baby on left (image of baby is on the right, assuming it is left since scan images are flipped)...was about to get excited it could mean girl but after reading and researching it looks like you really have no idea what you're looking at since tech can flip image around all they want, AND since where baby is shows no indication where placenta is grr! Just gonna have to wait for my Panorama draw this week- EEEEEK!!!!

21138 Hi, congrats on your pregnancy! Ramzi is really just a guess . It is very difficult to know for us just by looking at a pic where the placenta is frorming/attaching. Lets say, your placenta is forming just where your baby is, then my guess is GIRL.

[Bdb84]

My tech and I discussed this method when I was getting a scan at 8 weeks. My placenta was on the right, so he said that I have a 9 out of 10 chance of this baby being a boy. I had another scan done at 14 weeks, by the same tech, and very near confirmed (posted nub shots on here) that I'm, in fact, carrying a GIRL. He said that my placenta is still on the right, too, and I'm officially the 4th person, that he has scanned himself, that this method did not work for. FWIW- he's been a sonographer for over 20 years, so he definitely knows his stuff. :)

[timi10]

IF ramzi were to hold true in your case it would be a left side Girl IF this image has been flipped.
If its proper orientation then its right side boy.

They can re orientate the image on the screen. If its true to orientation without them making adjustments. The Left of the image is your right side and vice versa. So if that part is true the guess would be BOY. So if you know if yours was true or flipped then you know your answer.

Tess- ramzi is for 6-8 weeks. Ur baby looks a little big for that theory to apply. If ur LO is around 12 weeks... Ur better off w a nub shot. Do u have a good pic of the nub?

Rutro I think it depends. Sometimes techs flip trasvaginal images and sometimes they don't. Did the tech day of it was flipped?

[Rutro]

I wish I knew then to ask. Going today for an 11 week scan. Anything I could ask now that would be helpful? It may be too early for an accurate nub shot.

Aussie, one more question. How did you get to email Ramzi? Im kinda thinking of doing the same..

I actually just got his email address online from a story that was written about him. He does charge $10 but he asks to see the picture first and then if he can confirm the sex he will let you know and you just make payment via paypal. Honestly, I figured I was probably just donating $10 to him :-) but he was right for a few other ladies on here so I figured why not! And what do you know he was right! 50/50 chance I admit but I had fun with it and it gave me hope :-) Let me know if you want his email.

No not at all. Once he said he could tell from the picture I sent payment and told him I had done so and he responded in about 30mins. He will look at as many pics as you have.

I attached him on old pic from my son and the new. He hasnt really given my a plain answer and now hes not responding anymore :-/

Oh on that's not good :-(( Did he say he couldn't tell? He told me he would only take payment if he was certain.....he did take around 30mins to respond to the last message is net him. May have been a bit longer. I really don't like waiting!!

[Angel29ique]

No the same for me. Hate it. I read it as i needed to pay no matter what. And now i feel he is not really responding anymore :-/

Hi all - I just had my first ultrasound today (transvaginal), but I am not sure which way Razmi goes. The baby was curled up with head down and legs up in the air. I'm not sure what right/left are in relation to Razmi theory. Is it also accurate at this point? I was a little over 8 weeks.

Any guesses? TIA! I should also mention that initially all we saw was the baby's tushy, so maybe the sonographer flipped the screen? Can they change the view with a transvaginal ultrasound? I'm just trying to hold out hope for my sway....

Update: added some additional pics because I thought they looked different! Any guesses appreciated. I'm dying over here and trying to hold on to hope for a boy!!!
Hi texasnewbie! Your pics to me look like baby is implanted on left which indicates girl. They say that trasvaginal ultrasounds are true to picture where abdominal ultrasounds have to be flipped because they are mirror images. Good luck!!

Hoping for some guesses also! I had an abdominal scan. Baby is mostly smack dab in the middle except in one pic... Thanks so much! http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/09/18/78d3ece1f9d1e99233d3082dff70636e.jpghttp://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/09/18/94b5dcceb9aac1fd9483f817be01ca65.jpg

I would LOVE some guesses on my 8 week (abdominal) scans based on the Ramzi method. Thanks in advance. :)

Hi zara-b! I can only see your middle pic but based on that I would most definitely guess girl since baby looks on the far right and since that was an abdominal scan it would mean left! Goodluck!

Jess please could you guess mine? It's a bit further up this page

[Bobster]

I guess girl for you although it's tricky as the placenta does look to be in the middle at the bottom. The reason I guess girl though is because baby seems to be more on the left than the right.

[Jessmarie85]

Any updates olive? Mine looks similar to yours. Can anyone take a guess? This is abdominal 8+1. Thanks
Thanks for the guess! Is bottom associated with boy? I've heard both on that! We are hoping girl! We have one boy and we lost our daughter so it would be quite a blessing! Yours is kind of tricky I would initially say girl because the baby is on right a d flipped that would be left but it's not where the baby is its where the sac is attached and in most pics I've seen they are right where the baby is but yours seems that it could be trailing to the upper left. Do you have another pic?

Hi Bobster, my 12 week scan is still 50/50 but I got a lot of girl guesses but experts said too early to tell - the nub could be on the rise - good luck to us !

[Bobster]

2745327454Thanks Jess. The doctor said the placenta was where the cord is which does look in the middle doesn't it. It is a tricky one I agree. I'm hoping for a girl too as have one ds and don't want anymore babies after this one. Baby did implant on the right so I'm guessing I o'd from the right.

I'm sorry to hear about the loss of your dg. I hope you hear pink.

Here's another picture ...

[Bobster]

Does the yolk sac usually go near the placenta or can it be anywhere? The second pic shows the yolk sac on the left but I'm not sure if that makes any dofference or not?

Olive are you hoping for a girl? How frustrating not getting a clear nub. im dreading my 12 week scan as I know I'll see a clear boy nub. At least then I'll know though as waiting to find out is torture

Bobster, I would definitely say girl for you! I think usually the sac is right with the baby most of the time! I'm in the same boat as you, Hoping this is our last!! Good luck!! Hopefully our 12 week nub shots will shed some light on it for us!! Have you ladies heard of a test called Sneak Peek? It's new since I was last prego, its supposed to be 99% accurate at telling you the gender! I've been a little on the fence because it's $100 but I can't take the suspense! Haha

I hope you are right Jess.

I've never heard of it but will definitely be googling it now! Is it a blood test or urine? Have you read reviews to check its not a scam? Hmmmm I'm so impatient too. When is your 12 week scan?

It's a blood test, The website looks pretty legit but I read reviews and they were mixed and for $100 I'd want it to be accurate ya know?

Jess sneak peek looks really convincing! I wonder if it's the same as the panorama but obviously without looking for genetic disorders. It says there's a money back guarantee. If I were from USA I would be very tempted!

[Hitmebabyonemoretime]

We have one like that sneak peek test you mentioned - but I think you have to arrange for a collection kit and have someone draw your blood then send it back.... I'm leery of it...

Sooo I did some digging and when I called my doctor they said I can do the down syndrome/ gender test for $140 because insurance doesn't cover it @ 12 weeks so I have it scheduled for 10/19! I'm so excited and its 99% accurate as well!

I really hope I get a clear nub shot so not left wondering until 20 weeks!

Hi
This was taken vaginally.
Can someone tell me based on theory if its suggests boy or girl.
Thanks

I also think girl based on Ramzi

[HealthyGirl]

Can you guys tell me if I'm looking at the position of the baby or placenta? Bc they are opposite of one another.
Also is the right of the picture actually left or right?
I've read different places say with a transvaginal ultrasound it's not mirrored image and read other places say that it is.
So confused now.

It's def girl based on ramzi. You need to forget about it now ;) sounds like it's driving you a little bonkers. Are you found harmony?


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

[HealthyGirl]

I'm only driving myself nuts bc I just want to know so I know how to read it.
Yeah I'm gonna do harmony or panorama. Besides finding gender one of the main reasons is bc I'm over 35 and want to be screened for possible chromosomal abnormalities.
When do you get your results back?

People have sent DR RAMZI HIMSELF their ultrasound pics with $10 for him to read them and he's gotten them wrong.

Please do not obsess over Ramzi. If it worked in any reliable way, everyone would be doing it by now.

To answer your questions, you look at placenta, not baby. It is your right, not necessarily how it looks in the pic (altho sometimes pictures are flipped) All the other things depend on the tech that did the scan, what setting their machine was on when they took the picture. It is possible for them to take one pic, flip the setting over, take another pic from a different angle (I have a set of ultrasound pics with one of my kiddos where they did that, they're flipflopped 2 one way, 3 the other) Sometimes it will say on the picture itself but other times it won't.

[Angel29ique]

Atomic is right. I was one of them! Mailed him and paid $10. Have to say he takes his time and you are more than welcome to send him multiple emails and picture if he might be doubting. With me he said boy both times i send him the pictures.. one at 6 weeks and one at 9 weeks. I was so dissapointed and actually got a small panic attack after his answer. Now i am 36 weeks along and will be welcoming a baby girl in 4 weeks which has been confirmed by 2 genderscans (14 and 18 weeks) and the 20 week scan.

The said 10 days, but idk if it's business days or any old day lol if is business days then by oct 6th. I have heard their good about getting that results early but that being said they go to my doctors office, and they are notoriously well known for calling days and days after they actually get the results :/

I just asked my RE whether on a transvaginal the image is mirrored and he said it is.
So I'm really confused now.

this was 7weeks 1day not transviginally,i realise this isnt 100% and just for fun im just curious.thanks

[TJBezz]

Any ideas on what mine could be please? :) it's abdominal.

http://i60.tinypic.com/jhbm11.jpg

[ThinkinPinkin]

I'd say boy for both of you. Abdominally you're looking at the correct side so both are on the right and I believe that the placenta forming on the right means boy. :) I think mine is confusing because it looks like the placenta is forming on the left but the baby/yolk sac is more on the right. Ugh. It's so nerve wracking.

[XXforhubby]

With abdominal scans you switch sides. Right is really left and left is really right. Vaginally gives the true side the placenta is on.

[XXforhubby]

Several internet searches support what I have been told by my OB and ultrasound techs. Trans-vaginal is the true side, abdominal needs flipping.

So baby is actually implanted on the left side?
My gynae & ultrasonographer do not support such gender methods.
Such a headache to get a little idea of what gender this baby could be lol

[Mcf11]

It's for a friend ;) not mine.....yet lol want to see what the experts think! Backstory is this is baby #2 and first is a ds of 7 months, this is a 8 wk tv us. Thanks ladies!!!
