Hi all I went for a gender scan at 17+5, the lady told me it looked more like a boy, as she said she could see the testicular shadow, and she went on to show me 2 areas which I presumed was the scrotum...really I didn't have a clue what I wear looking at! Anyway left the scan thrilled.....already have DS and I would be happy to have a boy or girl this time.
We went for our anomaly scan at 20 weeks and thankfully baby seems healthy. At the end of the scan we were asked if we knew the sex, I said-"yes, a boy", at which point she said that she would have guessed more girl...SHOCK! She showed us 2 white lines and a possible 3rd line in between...but baby started moving lots and so the rest of our views were limited.
So now I am confused....should I pay for a 2nd gender scan privately or accept team yellow status??!! Which scan sounds more accurate? Knowing me I will probably fork out and pay for another scan which will hopefully give me a definitive answer...I had a surprise with DS1 but this time not knowing is driving me crazy!
Thoughts on scans please?
