Ladybugs I am inclined to go with your hospital! They saw girl bits twice!!!! I'm always a bit wary of those elective places tbh. And if they took time to find boy bits I'd say it's very suspect.
Must be so frustrating not to know for sure. I hope you can get confirmation hun xxxx
I went to phone my mom to tell her of the kidney/bladder news (not telling gender stuff even) and she let me know that my brother has been rushed to the hospital an hour away for a CT scan. He fell onto his back/backside off his crane truck and is in urgent care. I have been bawling over that....I promise I will respond to all the messages soon....I have been praying my heart out for my brother.
How scary ladybugs. Praying for your brother and your precious baby both.
Oh I am so sorry, this is huge news, I will be thinking of you and your brother and wishing him all the best.Quote:

Big hugs.
I know its probably far from your mind right now but if you were told boy at 15-16 weeks through a 3d scan, and girl at 18 & 21 weeks on a 2d scan at the hospital, I would believe the later gestation, 2d, hospital scans.
We are heading out the door to friends for dinner...I feel blessed that she will be taking care of my boys hungry bellies. I am in no frame of mind to be making a decent dinner. Still waiting for the call from my mom about my brother.....my eyes are raw.
Waiting for Daisy....I need to message the other girl who did the 18 week scan tonight! I wonder what she will say......and do.
Myrainbowgirl....I have a pic in 3d that she claims is testicles and penis....let me post it later.
I want to believe the hospital scan so badly!! Just not the part about the kidney or bladder though :)
Ladybugs-wow what exciting news about the 18 weeks scan being wrong! Yippee!!! You are giving me hope that a third baby can be a girl after 2 boys Sorry to hear about the one kidney but glad she has another one that's ready to go!!!! Said a prayer for your brother. So sorry to hear about that news. Hoping everything is ok! Keep us posted!
XxNatxx-when will you be able to get more information or willyouneed to just wait until your next scan? I would also be like you and skip the amnio. No matter what this baby will bless you all beyond belief!
Meeks-I am sure you are so excited too!
Uh oh I posted in the wrong thread! All still applies thou!!! Headed to dec-jan-feb thread now! :-)
Meeks -- that looks totally girly to me!!! You must be over the moon!
Mathilde -- I agree that it is too early to be sure. Hopefully thinking about the possibility of it being a boy will help you come to terms with it in a way that is hard to do when the odds are completely unknown, but it certainly isn't the final word. Try to consider yourself still in yellow territory for now!
Ladybugs -- wow, what news! I hope your brother is okay. I'm very glad the second kidney looked good and functional. What did they say about a bulging bladder, does that mean anything? If the amniotic fluid levels were good, that means she IS passing urine, so maybe she was just full and about to pee when they did the scan? And she, yes, I'm inclined to listen to the 2d later-term more-experienced techs!! Experience has a LOT to do with it. When I went in at 6 weeks with pain on one side, the OB couldn't even find my left ovary with the ultrasound, and she tried for a good five uncomfortable minutes. So she called in a tech, who found it in about 3 seconds. (Funny thing, my pain was on the left but it was my right ovary that had ovulated and had the cyst on it... Oh well!) Anyway, I am wholeheartedly happy your baby got a miraculous gender-change, haha!
Ladybugs - Wow, you have been through so much in the past 24 hrs!! Prayers for your brother. Please keep us posted on everything!
The time at my friend's house was dearly needed.....the concerns for my brother's life and health are of top concern to me, but it was nice that my baby was important to them to ask/talk about as well. No real update on my brother, but he was airlifted to Vancouver tonight and we will have more to go on in the am. Please keep him in your prayers and thoughts!!
I will be on in the morning to reply...my heart is heavy over my brother and I know that I will need sleep.
