No don't worry about that shadow that is most likely where the cord joins. Especially as it's so dark it's clearly further away.
Yes sorry I meant at the anatomy scan make sure it's done by someone else, but I didn't realise your ob did the first one. Ob's aren't super reliable with gender picking so I would go with the potty shot and assume girl/boy twins. Our system sounds the same with ob's and scans, although we can pay for private ones if we wish, it's not common. My ob told me boy at 11w but he said that based on a potty shot and showed me a very convincing looking doodle. This turned out to be the long flat girl nub, because when viewed from that angle at that gestation that's how they look! At 15w my ob said the opposite, and said girl, with a shot that looked like yours, almost exactly. Then I had my anatomy scan at the specialist and she told me girl at 19 weeks and I was far more sure then, because they are the experts. She said she was confident. Of course I still asked my ob to "prove to me she was a girl" at my following appointment anyway, just to be sure, and this was around 22 weeks I think. That was when I got the breakdown of lips and labia and so on.

I hope girls for you too!! I have no idea how u guys are able to tell, but i am praying for you!!

Congrats, looks like you're getting boy girl twins! :) amazing!

Thanks GT77!
Thailand didn't you have your scan today? Any news yet?
-
Can anyone else take a guess please? I am still worried about that shadow :(.
Also, is there a way a penis could stick up and not be seen when the legs are spread wide open like on the pic? I have read that girls are mistaken for boys far more often than the other way around and am freaking out now.

Pumpkin I can see the shadow & understand your doubts. BUT I think that if it was a scrotum/penis it would be as clear & defined as the legs. It also wouldn't appear that far away. I've never seen any of my boys at that gestation, only 20 weeks, so I'm not exactly sure what can be seen at 15 weeks. I do think it'd be much clearer if it was a boy. I still think you have B/G twins, which is awesome!! :heart:

I am guessing girl too. I think it is promising that the shadow is something other than a penis because both thighs are present in the scan (if the scan was further back and didn't show the thighs, then the penis could be hidden more easily).

Baby boy peepers are really tiny at that point so there is no way it could float away anywhere that would not be visible on that ultrasound!!

Thank you soooo much ladies!!!

I had another scan yesterday and baby A, the one with the girly potty shot on page 1 did look like a boy to my OB while baby B, who was confirmed 100% boy at 15 weeks seems to be a girl.
Anyways, baby A's potty shots looked very girly to me and she only gave me a profile shot were you basically can only see the genital area. Would you guys mind taking a look at it and let me now it this are boy parts please?
