Out of interest, how often are girls mistaken for boys at 16 weeks?
It does happen but not all that often, especially if the tech knows what they are doing. I do think they should have given you a gender pic, though, since you paid for a private scan. Can you call them and let them know you aren't happy without proof?
I'm also sorry for getting your hopes up. I know how emotional this can all be. I think I will wait until your 20 week ultrasound to double check the results as your tech wasn't very co-operative. When is it? Mine's 7th March 11am Australian time. Yours must be around the same time?
I just had my 3rd boy 2 weeks ago and I have to say I am quite happy I wanted a girl so bad that I went for a third, or he'd never be here! I love him to bits, and you'll be fine once he's here:)
My 20 week Nhs scan is the 12th march. I am pretty sure it will still be a boy but I will wit until then for sure. I am slowly coming round to the idea but still quite upset at the moment.
Coco, thanks for your message. I know I will feel differently when he gets here.

I had a really hard time during the pregnancy. I knew I would feel great once he was here but didn't feel any excitement at all until then so I understand! Just know that it won't hurt forever:) I sometimes had excitement about him during the pregnancy but mostly I just was angry about the whole thing and myself! It's hard to see the light but its there for sure;)
Ok so following all your advice, I complained about not having a gender pic and they agreed to send me one. The quality isn't great as it was emailed to be as a PDF but there is definitely something between the legs! Please can you take a look and let me know if I am totally deluding myself that there is ANY chance this ciud become a girl at 20 weeks. Thanks! X

I'm not sure if I'm looking at it properly as hard to make out what is what, but from what I can see is a potty shot then I would have though the bit in between the legs was too big? Could it be the cord?
Sorry I know that doesn't help as you're already driving yourself insane (I did the same when I heard boy number 3). My fingers are firmly crossed for you that it is wrong though, how clear was the scan when you saw it on the screen? Were you certain it was a boy from what you saw? xxx
I didn't have a lot of faith in the tech but this was definitely the potty shot. I need to get on the pc to change it to a proper image as was sent as a PDF. This is a photo of my screen!
I know I saw something between the legs but it could have been cord, I am in no way experienced enough to tell the difference!
Will know for sure March 12th!!
It isn't really focused but I can only assume that at 20 weeks, that is a penis and a boy.
