Confirmed boy....then confused:/

So I posted a couple of weeks ago my 12 almost 13 wk US photo which pretty clearly indicated boy. Then I got an elective US and tech confirmed boy. THEN I made the mistake of changing my midwife appt to a nurse appt because the tech found babies head measuring a week ahead and I wanted to discuss. Not only did she blow off my question about the dating/head size but she also indicated the tech could very well be wrong about the gender and treated me like a victim who had been taken advantage of. Totally lame! She definitely planted the seed of doubt when I was feeling very sure of everything- trying to move forward but super irritated. In any case, here are my "confirmed" potty shots. I still see pee pee and am disappointed in her behavior but was curious of your opinions and experiences dealing with not so great hospital staff. Back to he midwives next time!

Hmm...that looks clearly boy to me. I'm also a fan of midwives and have been disappointed with OBs. I'm sorry that happened!

Clear boy.

Yeah and the whole reason I even brought up the US wasn't for gender talk but to ask about the head size being a week ahead and she nearly passed right over that straight into bashing the tech. Now I'm sitting over here contemplating the gender AND the head size- lol. Oy.

that is a boy

Looks like boy to me....maybe she was in a bad mood and wanted to bash someone. :/

In her high pitched whiney voice that sounds like butterflies and cupcakes? lol! Perhaps. Thanks ladies- you sure know how to brighten my flopped mood:-)

Don't worry about the head size, it usually just means the head happens to be a bit bigger than average for that week. All mine have slightly bigger than average heads on ultrasound. Ds1 & ds4 have bigger heads in general still, but they're totally fine.

Sorry you made you doubt things in addition to ignoring your question!

Thanks blueeyedguys:-) I'm a bit of a worry wart in general but being prego brings out the worst of it. All of the reassurance is very sweet!

Try not to worry easier said than done I suppose, plenty of relaxing and pampering for you! X

I wouldn't worry about the head size either. I have not had head size measured until 20 weeks. At this point baby is so small it would be hard to get a super good measurement anyway. All my kids have had heads that measured big. The size of the head doesn't matter as long as the head doesn't seem to growing at a rate that is different than the rest of the body.

I think my problem is I started assuming (Uh dumb!) that the head was big and the body was small meaning various different potential problems. Why I do these things to myself is beyond me. Lol. I think I've let it go though- no sense in worrying about made up things when I have another 4 weeks before I can find out anything anyway.

I think as Moms we always find something to obsess about having do to with the baby's health. For me this PG is it that I have an anterior placenta and cant feel the baby move so I keep thinking something is wrong. I am 20 weeks PG and still cant feel the baby. Doesn't matter that it is "normal" not to feel the baby with an anterior placenta, I still think something is wrong.

Wanting pink- you're absolutely right. Will you be able to feel baby at some point? As she gets bigger perhaps?

My first had an anterior placenta, it was really hard to feel him until around 25 weeks or so & I think (long time ago, first baby) after he was big enough, I had no trouble feeling him, just maybe a bit....muted, for lack of a better word.

Yes from what I understand I will be able to at some point. It is just so weird not to feel the baby move!! Had my 20 week ultrasound yesterday and everything was fine so I had a moment of knowing everything was okay. It is hard when you start feeling better AND the baby isn't moving. I haven't had this happen before. Once a week I look for a heartbeat with a doppler so that makes me feel better. I can hear her move on the doppler too.
