Thanks so much for trying. All of my ultrasounds are pretty ambiguous. I was thinking boy all along, but skull theory looks like a girl. Would seriously be happy with either, but we have a girl name we love. Hopefully finding out soon. Thanks!

Hi everyone I am new here. I did make a new thread, but I suppose I should have posted here for ramzi guesses! This is my u/s at 6w2d and it was abdominal u/s? Any guesses? We have 2 boys, so a girl would be nice :)
.
They say to left it's a girl but it's def not true the whole Ramaz thing but u never know!!

Attachment 18202 this is my internal scan at 6+3..boy or girl?
boy?
I haven't a clue lol first I've heard of this ramzi thing lol
So I have to admit that I don't really understand Ramzi's method. I mean I get the principle but is it my left or the person interpreting it?
That being said I was studying all my kids first uls scan last night and I noticed that both of my boys placenta seemed to be mostly on the same side (not sure if it is right or left IRL but it was left on the scan). Both of these scans were both done abdominally. Then I noticed that DD and this LO were both on the other side (taking into account they were done transvag which from what I understand is a true image and the abdominal is a flipped image) or at least that is how it appeared to be. Just wondering if anyone else has been as obsessive as me and tried to study their kids 1st ultrasound to predict the gender of their current?
Wanting the tech can flip the image so it's either a true image or mirror to suit the scan so the sidedness from the picture doesn't really tell us much it's where the placenta attaches and to know that you would need to ask your tech. That being said this baby could definitely be another little princess :) my second sons scan pic showed him being on the left at 8 weeks but I don't know whether the placenta was attached there, though I imagine it was. I asked the tech where the baby was and he said the left side but that may have meant 'if the image' not f my uterus. All too confusing for me haha xx
Well my tech for this one was a total B!! She wouldn't even tell me the placenta was anterior when it clearly WAS!! Then when she finally did tell me the placenta was anterior she looked at me and was like "well what does that matter". Well it matters because I have had 3 C-sections and I want to ask my Dr. about it!! I wanted to smack her with the vaginal probe:)
Anyway, she was no help however, the indicators (there is a M or a dot or some type of indicator and the top of most uls machines) that tells you the orientation of the image is the same for both this lo and DD and they were done at the same clinic. I was just wondering if anyone else had compared images. I agree that it is confusing and don't really understand what exactly to look for. Looks like you need a flow image anyway. I am just obsessing until I get my MaterniT21 results:)
How long??? Totally stalking you ;) I laughed at you wanting to hit her with the probe haha. You'd never feel clean again after being hit with one of those across the face!!! (No offence ;) haha) xx
Ha ha... right Mulberry!! Well I had MaterniT21 drawn Friday so I am hoping the results will be here this Friday or maybe sometime early next week. I love knowing the gender of the baby. I think it just helps me think about what they might look like and be like. Also with planning a room and clothes. It just kind of makes me feel a little closer to the baby in a weird way. I think women who wait have some WILL POWER!! I always say that it would be fun to wait but really I don't think I am that patient:)
You should be getting them any day now, no?
Of course that is important! Not only for c sections but you feel less! It's important to know you might not feel the same things that you would typically with posterior!!
Lol at whacking he with the probe;)
Mine is anterior this time too:/ super bummed as that's 3 of 4. I did feel not with the 3rd than the 1st (both the anterior ones) but it's more exciting for the kids to see all the movement:(

The PP was right who said BOTH transvaginal and abdominal u/s's are done the SAME way (meaning both can be flipped!!). Found this on a BBC thread:
Ok, I'm a sonographer, let me see if I can clear some things up. The image on the screen is as if it is facing you (like the patient is facing the tech) therefore, on the screen the right side of the patient is on the techs left side, like a mirror image. It's like this on all imaging modalities (Xray, CT, MRI, etc) It doesn't matter if it is on the belly or transvaginal the image on the screen shows the right side of the patient on the left side of the monitor or screen. Also, it doesn't matter how the tech has the transducer (wand) we have the capabilities to "flip" the image upside down, rightside up and flip it left to right by just pressing a button on the machine. Now keep in mind we scan in two planes...longitudinal and transverse, so yes it would be difficult for you to decipher if you are looking from head to toe or right side to left side without a tech explaining it to you, nothing on the screen indicates when we are doing this other than the words we type on the screen. And just to make things more complicated, sometimes I have to scan on the patients left side of their body to see things on the right inside of them and vice versa...kinda like standing on one side of the room and shining a flashlight to the otherside of the room....and you thought all we did was wave a wand around and press some buttons...lol. I know this is all very confusing, but try to trust that the person doing your scan knows what they are doing (as long as they have been properly trained that is, you'd be amazed at who might be doing your scan if you don't ask). Always make sure your tech is trained and registered with the ARDMS, then you'll know they know what they are doing
And this:
THE LEFT OF THE IMAGE/SCREEN SHOWS THE PATIENT'S RIGHT FOR BOTH TRANSVAGINAL & ABDOMINAL
Transvaginal ultrasounds and abdominal ultrasounds do NOT differ in their perspectives.
For BOTH, the view on the image/screen is from the perspective of the sonographer.
*** This means that the left of the image of the image/screen is the patient's right, while the right of the image of the image/screen is the patient's left. ***
This applies to transverse ultrasounds (which is the typical type of scan at 6 weeks).
(Sagittal ultrasounds show neither left nor right).
Please refer to www.mainehealth.org/em_body.cfm?id=...
Technically, the sonographer can flip the image, so ask if it's a true transverse if you would like to be sure.
OTHER NOTES ON THE RAMZI METHOD
It's about whether the placenta is starting to form (not where the fetus is). You can take a guess from your ultrasound pic, but the only way to KNOW where it's forming is to have an ultrasound that shows the blood flow (which is what Ramzi used).
If the placenta is forming on the right (which will be left on the image/screen), then it indicates a boy.
If the placenta is forming on the left (which will be right on the image/screen), then it indicates a girl.
THANK YOU. PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD! :)
*Please excuse me if I'm reviving an old post. I'm trying to kill the false internet rumour by responding to posts which appear high up on relevant Google searches.
My 8 week scan shows baby on left (image of baby is on the right, assuming it is left since scan images are flipped)...was about to get excited it could mean girl but after reading and researching it looks like you really have no idea what you're looking at since tech can flip image around all they want, AND since where baby is shows no indication where placenta is grr! Just gonna have to wait for my Panorama draw this week- EEEEEK!!!!
Any guesses on mine? It was TVhttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/05/20/2e5ugegu.jpg

Attachment 19556
Will someone guess for me? Abdominal scan at 7 week 6 day. When I asked tech, she said baby was "in the center" of my uterus. How do you know if you need the flip the pic? Are they all mirror images?
9w transvaginal . any thoughts? :D

Hello Everyone!
I'm a long time lurker but first time poster and had a transvaginal u/s yesterday at 6+5. I did sway for this 3rd baby and would REALLY love to have you all guess on gender using the Ramzi method for my pic! Can't wait to see what you guys think! :)
Attachment 21138
Hi, congrats on your pregnancy! Ramzi is really just a guess . It is very difficult to know for us just by looking at a pic where the placenta is frorming/attaching. Lets say, your placenta is forming just where your baby is, then my guess is GIRL.Quote:

I had another scan done at 14 weeks, by the same tech, and very near confirmed (posted nub shots on here) that I'm, in fact, carrying a GIRL. He said that my placenta is still on the right, too, and I'm officially the 4th person, that he has scanned himself, that this method did not work for. FWIW- he's been a sonographer for over 20 years, so he definitely knows his stuff. :)
do you have the 8w pic to post? plz
IF ramzi were to hold true in your case it would be a left side Girl IF this image has been flipped.Quote:

They can re orientate the image on the screen. If its true to orientation without them making adjustments. The Left of the image is your right side and vice versa. So if that part is true the guess would be BOY. So if you know if yours was true or flipped then you know your answer.
Anyone that can help me with an older pic of my first child? Will have a new pic in two weeks and want ro know what to look for.

Based on the theory I would say boy although I don't know gestation.Quote:

Any guesses? 7 weeks, 2days. Attachment 21437
( oh and it was transvaginal, if that makes a difference).
if it was TV then girl based on the theory
hi ,could anyone guess from ramzi theory Attachment 21458Attachment 21459Attachment 21460
Attachment 21461Attachment 21462
Tess- ramzi is for 6-8 weeks. Ur baby looks a little big for that theory to apply. If ur LO is around 12 weeks... Ur better off w a nub shot. Do u have a good pic of the nub?
Rutro I think it depends. Sometimes techs flip trasvaginal images and sometimes they don't. Did the tech day of it was flipped?
I wish I knew then to ask. Going today for an 11 week scan. Anything I could ask now that would be helpful? It may be too early for an accurate nub shot.
Mine was right. Attachment 21488
Transvaginal 8w3d. By Ramzi Boy.
Anyone care to guess on mine! This was a transvaginal ultrasound today at 6W4D. She told me me that I ovulated from my left ovary if that means anything as well.
Attachment 21506
Anyone still guessing? If so my twins 6w2days

Update from me! Baby #3 was another boy. Born 21st aug 2014- he is now 5 months old :)
