Thinking boy, hoping for girl

[mrsdimps]

My OB told me with total confidence at 12 weeks that its a boy. I saw what she was looking at but it didn't look as clear as my other two boys. I had my scan at 12+6 and I will post photos from that. Kind of looks boy but still unsure? I will post the only nub shot but I don't see a clear nub in it.

That’s very risky of her to say that.. 12+6 is too soon to interpret the nub as boys and girls look pretty much the same then apparently. There’s a good website showing pictures of this that i’ll try to find. I think by 14-15 weeks you might start to see differences but not in the 12th week. The nub shot alone looks girly as I can’t see any stacking on it but it’s not the clearest as he leg is there too. Did you see the nub during the scan?

I have everything crossed that this is a girl.

I didn't really get a good look at the nub during the scan. The sonographer was just focused on getting what measurements she needed. I am a bit annoyed at my OB for saying that. I was only just 12 weeks at that appt when she told me. With my other two I was 15 weeks when she told me and it was very obvious. I have my next appt in just over a week when I will be just about 16 weeks so I should know for sure then but its been eating me up. I wish she just hadn't said anything because now I'm over analysing everything from the scan I had at 12+6. Its just hard to think that the shots of the legs with the bit sticking up isn't a penis but we will soon see.

I don’t know, could go either way at this stage.

I do have somewhat of a blue vibe from these (maybe 60-40) BUT I will say the vast majority of our incorrect ultrasounds are OBGYN guessing far too early. They do not have the expertise of ultrasound techs and also are often overly confident with their guesses.

FXFXFX!
