I'm a total noob. It's really hard for me to tell where the placenta is. There is one pic where I think I see a yolk sac on the left, so for an abdominal ultrasound that would correspond to your left side, which would mean a girl. The yolk sac is not the placenta, but the placenta generally forms on the same side as the yolk sac.
can you please tell me which picture you think you see the yolk sac in? Also I read If it's an abdominal us when you look at the pic it's reversed so whatever side its on then u switch it to the other side. (But who Knws Lol) i didn't knw about the Ramzi theory before my us so didn't think to ask! Im jus anxious/nervous & stressed! My first Born is a son & My Husband has 3 sons from prior marriages/relations so he has $ Boys
I think I see it in the 4th pic with the colored frame. Also, it seems the baby is seems to be situated in the left side, which if it's early enough is a good approximation of where the placenta will be.
Yes I've read that abdominal ultrasounds are mirror images, but a mirror image means that right side of the image=right side of the body. If you hold up your right hand in a mirror, you will see your hand raised on the right side of the mirror. An example of a non-mirrored image is if you are facing someone and go to shake their right hand--you're going to reach to the left side of your body. I think this is what is causing a lot of confusion in using this method.
I meant he has 4 boys no girlsQuote:

Your picture with the yolk sac (4th down) appears to be upside down based on the sono pic shape. And then the Doppler scans have more activity on the right side if the frame (bottom pic). Just a guess though.
Now you really got me confused......the way I think of a transverse is that the sonographer faces you the wand will be placed on your tummy facing you. So when they place the wand picks up something on the left side of your uterus the image to you will appear as your right side and visa versa. So the image produced is transverse to you. Imagine someone faces you and films you that means that whatever is in your left hand they will seem its on their right and so the image printed is a transverse image and flipped. Correct me if I am wrong. I also do not understand why that should be any different to a vaginal ultrasound. But I suppose because the sonographer is facing you they need to see the image form their perspective rather than yours to make the right assessment.Quote:

all I can say is when i had the abdominal us done she was always on the rigtht side so the mirrored affect would mean left right? Hopefully i can get in contact with the lady who did my us and ask her I also have a video if that might helpQuote:

I actually sort out Dr Saad Ramzi Ismail and asked his opinion on my ultrasound. He was very helpful.
Thanks it was confirmed a girl!!!
