Choroid plexus cysts and gender

At my 22 weeks scan I was told baby has bilateral choroid plexus cysts 4.5 x 4.5 mm, so my ob/gyn scheduled me in 3 weeks for another scan to see if they resolved.
My nephew also had bilateral CPC and he is now perfectly healthy 6yr old.

CPC are 'soft marker' for some chromosomal disorders, primarily trisomy 18. Babies with Trisomy 18 usually are showing other abnormalities on u/s such as microcephaly, intracranial and periventricular calcifications, clenched fists, thickened placenta.....

If CPC is present as an isolated sign, usually nothing to worry about, tho I have to admit I'm freaking out a bit, googling like crazy etc. I'm having this baby no matter what.

So....since this is gender forum after all :wink: my question is anyone here had same experience and what was baby's gender?

Here http://www.jultrasoundmed.org/conten...1/769.full.pdf I've found CPC are slightly more present in girls (52.7% compared to 47.3% in boys) though bilaterality was more common in male fetuses http://yoursmiles.org/psmile/science/p0316.gif

My DD had a CPC

Thank you! Do you remember did you have anterior or posterior placenta with her?
I have posterior this time, with my girls it was anterior all 3 times. I know only for DD1 it was left anterior.

I have 2 friends who's BOYS had this;)
The cysts went away on their own, babies perfect:)

My DS#2 had this too, the cysts dissolved by the next scan and he's as perfect as perfect can be! ;)
