Is this white mark/blob a willy?

Attachment 28349

Had a scan at 17 weeks. Is this white mark/blob by the legs (I think) a willy?!

Don't really know I'm not experienced at this but I'd be inclined to say could go either way gender wise! Did u ask about gender? Xx

Yes, it was a gender scan. Baby did lots of potty shots but she said it had the cord between its legs. Then when it was in a side view profile she said boy. Just wanted to know that pic shows he's a boy as I didn't come away with a pic showing that he is one, id have liked a potty shot. I will ask at 20 week scan though!

not a good shot for me, I'm sorry.

at 17 weeks I think side shots aren't always reliable???

That's okay Atomic :-)

I didn't know that about it maybe being unreliable at 17 weeks. I'm sure he is a boy but I will ask at my 20 week scan. I just wondered if that mark was it, as I didn't get a potty shot or anything.

Thanks

IT could go either way. it would be very high for a penis. And a penis isn't so white on a ultra sound.

Fingers crossed its your girl.

Thanks. I'm sure he is a boy which is fine as I've got used to the idea now. But just wish I could've seen the evidence from a potty shot. As it wasn't until baby led on his back as she said from his side profile that she could see a willy.

That is not a willy, but it could still be that the tech saw a willy during the scan. Do you have any nub (side view) shots from 12-14 weeks?

I did not get a potty shot on my gender scan but the tech still told me boy from side view, I don't think that what you are seeing is boy bits tho.

No that doesn't look like a penis to me, it's too white. I have a pic of my DS2 at 16 weeks from the side and his penis is sticking straight up with a bump on the top of it. It's also more transparent looking than what I see in your pic. Unless I'm mistaken, an opaque white area is likely to be bone. What we're seeing might be part of the baby's leg.

Thanks ladies. I'm sure the sonographer is correct, I was just wondering if the photo showed it as I'd have liked one - but I'm sure she's right, I did see something sticking up similar to your pic ksmom on the screen - that's reassured me seeing yours, as although I wanted a girl I have really come round to having another little boy.

Thanks ladies :-)

I'm sure if she said then she did see it but I don't think the picture shows gender I'm afraid.
