Thorz scan 12w4d measuring 13w2d

[Sway&Wish]

maybe ask to go back when you are 17 weeks and can feel more sure.

I agree... the three lines (which I see also) isn't parallel with the legs. Makes me think it might be something else all together. Do you have any other shots? Did you get a video? Maybe it is the cord or a hand. Do you remember in your scan if they got a good shot of the gender or was it a flash that they had to back the video up to get a photo (kwim??).

I'm not sure about anything anymore......that's why I want to wait until my 20 week scan so I can be certain, but I might cave in and see if they will do a rescan

No video, I paid for gender only package

I'm sorry Thorz. What an emotional roller coaster this must be for you.

Thorz -- I can see those three lines too and honestly have no idea what to make of them. But I am also not an experienced tech. I would call the place back and tell them you had an unexpected ultrasound for medical reasons where they told you 85% girl. If they are a good business, they'll HAVE to let you come back in free of charge. I mean, the tech I had said that she'd have you come back if she wasn't 100% certain. I know you said you want to wait until 20 weeks but you are almost 17 weeks and I think that's already a much safer zone than your first scan at just under 15 weeks. Call them and schedule it for later this week (and do us ALL a favor, hehe).

What I'm wondering is, is that even part of the baby's gender? It just looks odd to me, almost like a little hand rolled up or something.

That is exactly what I thought the very first time I looked at the pic but didn't want to say anything at that point. Usually the techs get lots of good looks during the ultrasound and are pretty sure when they guess gender but I was not at all convinced by that pic at the time. thought it looked like VJ and either a curl of the cord or a teeny hand.

I just read on another post called boy or girl 14 weeks (i think), i posted on it anyway so in my posts - that gender can be determined from 16 - 18 weeks, implying earlier was just not accurate. Have a look. It was Rainbow Baby that did the research. X

Those pics look like some of the ones a tech from ingender posted of her daughter. The thread is a sticky and a cautionary tale of why NOT to have a gender scan in the 14th week.

On balance, I think you're probably having a girl.

i found out ds3 was a boy at 17 weeks and it was very very clear!!!! dont put yourself through the torture of waiting
