At 15 weeks, the 3 lines for girl are fairly obvious if at the right angle and baby is letting us see. I agree with nicoler, in post #7 that looks like a pretty obvious penis/scrotum to me (I'm a sonographer and would confidently tell patients it's a boy off that picture.) I'm sorry.
In your picture on post #4, no gender, that's part of the femur/thigh bone. And the other one, post #3, that's still at baby's abdomen, might be bad angle of cord insert into baby's belly.

There is no chance to be diffrent?
It looks so but seems so big in just 15 week.
I'm wondering why dr wasn't sure about it.

Thank you very mych for your opinion. If you are sonographer I belive in your opinion and it's time to get used to that no girl in my life.

Doctors should not guess on 12 week scans as the nub can still rise at that point of gestation.
I am really sorry to say that based on the last pics you posted I too think it's a boy.
I wish I could tell you differently but I think that's a boy baby.

Thank you for your opinion? Is it 100% sure from these pics or there is still space for mistake? I am thinking if I should go to the Dr for additional scan to make sure or it doesn't make sense and I should wait till my 20 weeks scan?

We can't give anything approaching 100% off of one or two ultrasounds, but at 20 weeks they should be able to tell you. The techs see way more than we do.

I really really hope we're wrong. That doctor is a butt for telling you too early.

Nothing is a 100% and live scanning is always better than a still image so there's a chance we could all be wrong. Not a huge one. I would say about 80% confidence boy.
If the doctor is just a regular obgyn, I really wouldn't trust much of what they say about ultrasounds. I work with residents at a large teaching hospital and they spend exactly one month of their residency, less than 8 hours a day, learning to do/read ultrasounds. I went to school full time for almost 2 years and probably about 1000 hours of clinical experience by the time we graduated, to become a sonographer, plus we take board exams only on ultrasounds. (A lot of doctors actually aren't even registered/qualified to "read" ultrasounds)...the exception being most maternal fetal medicine doctors are really experienced with ultrasounds and those are the doctors that read our ultrasounds where I work. (They do several extra years of schooling over what a normal obgyn does, though.)
It's up to you to decide if you can wait or not to find out gender definitively. I personally would try to wait until 20 weeks but I'm a hypocrite because I scan myself at work at least once a week.
