Had a Gender Scan Today..what would you all think??
Hi all,
So i went in for an elective gender scan today at 16 +3. I just need to know as I want to cope with possibly letting go of the dream of having a son to complete our family of girls. Well, as luck would have it the cord was in the way! The tech was wonderful and had me move side to side and was really searching. Once the baby moved a bit she said "oh, look at that, i think we have a lil penis". I, shocked asked how sure and she said not to get too excited, but she's thinking its a boy.
So she had me keep moving and the cord wouldn't move clear enough out of the way. So I have to go back on Saturday, she said drink LOTS of water in the coming days, and eat a big lunch about 30 min before. We left it at that and with her saying she is 70% sure from what she saw and the shadowing/angles of potty shot that it is a boy.
Oddly, I'm more emotionless than I thought I'd be, and I'm more scared than ever. scared to get my hopes up really. I personally know someone who went in at 16 weeks & was told BOY & at 20wks and Birth! it was a GIRL!
So, what would you all think? 70% is good chance, right? Anyone else been told wrong at 16 weeks? (which I know is on the early side) Also, I really do trust that she really thinks its a boy, as we talked beforehand and she stated she knows all the emotions I'm feeling as she dreamed of a girl to complete her fam, and she has 3 boys.

That's hard because if she didn't see clearly then it's just a guess. The good news is whatever is down there will be that much bigger and drinking lots of water to get your fluid level up should really help!
I hope you see boy!Mom to

It's better to look back on life and say: "I can't believe I did that" than to look back and say "I wish I did that".
