Crappy Anatomy Scan

[BabyGirl4Me]

These were 2 of the pics I got from my 14 week scan. Tech seemed really confident, but now I am all worried based on your previous responses.

Second pic looks pretty darn girly!!

I think they look way girly, but I'm not a super experienced nub-watcher.

That is a girl.

Thanks Atomic - and I owe it to you!

That is a girl.

Yep, girl.

I'd write a complaint. If she's done it to many others, then either she needs retraining. In the UK dismissal is hard to do in the NHS. There needs to be a period of improvement targets, which if she is still getting complaints, then goes to formal warnings. If she's already got to the formal warning stage, then she shouldn't be in that job anyway!

Thanks for the post Northern. I am over it now and am just feeling grateful I went for a private scan. I opted to buy the DVD so I can watch the video any time too, and some people only get 1 or 2 scans and a few low quality printed pictures, so I'm lucky to have that too.

Can you go back to the private one you saw at 14 weeks? That 14 week potty shot looks girly to me, and I do think at the anatomy scan a doodle would have been obvious (I could see my boys ones a mile away)... But just for reassurance and request the same tech you had at 14 weeks.

I agree that a sensitive complaint letter could help save her job if you focus on what was lacking and how she could improve.

I could Meeks but she was pricey! I think I paid like $70 for the scan! I feel more confident that the baby is a girl. I think I would have been able to see a little wee wee on the scan if it was a boy at 18 weeks.
