Mrs _Incredible my scan was two weeks after yours though, I think by this time they should be able to tell, especially a 3d scan. With my first they told us even before, at 13 weeks! Thanks for trying to make me feel better, but I don't think that's the case with me.

I totally understand. If mine had been a boy I'd believe it was because i could tell in the 12th week, after all i saw a potty shot iykwim? I'd prepare for boy confirmation, but definitely get checked again 17+ weeks because it is still early and girls protrude too. Hugs xxx

They develop at different rates which is why most techs wont say 100% without blood confirmation until 21 weeks or later. I could have used the angle theory on my son and said girl up til almost 18 weeks! It may or may not have happened at this point just never know with each ones unique development. Do you have the 3D one to load up and maybe we can give you a better indicator?

I agree with NBP. Also, I thought ylu can't use 3D to detect gender, that it MUST be 2D ultrasound? Regardless I think it could very well be a girl. Fx for you.

Nahri- That is the only picture they gave us, honestly, I wasn't looking because I was too nervous! But DH said that was the only shot she got. I think the picture looks kind of blurry, but it does look like a little turtle :(

I'm sorry Tania. I wish I had all the answers for everyone. :( Congrats on a beautiful boy though.

I'm so sorry, I too swayed hard and prayed a lot and still got a precious baby boy who has stolen my heart.

I'm sorry you didn't hear pink. I disagree with a few others...he looks all boy.

Charliecats from IG (an ultrasound tech) posted a sticky on their forum about why 14 weeks is literally the WORST time for gender scans. She even posted pictures of her own daughter looking like she had a penis at 14 weeks.
I am NOT saying that you shouldn't be prepared to hear that it's really a boy at a later scan, but I wouldn't put anything into this scan. According to the ultrasound techs on IG (and the few I know IRL,) 18-22 weeks gestation is the best time for an accurate potty shot in 2D only (3D can give weird images for gender.) After that, girl parts can become swollen and look like boy parts, and boy parts can get squished and hidden as space gets tighter in there.
Honestly, a 13 week nub shot would be more accurate than the 14 week potty shot. Good luck!

Thank you LilithWiser... do you think you could send me the link to that post, I would love to read it. Don't wanna get my hopes high, but I like to be informed.
