To think the sonographer could be wrong?

I’ve been told girl but I just feel like it’s protruding too much? AIBU to question this or do I just trust what the trained sonographer says? 🤷🏼‍♀️

Any parents with girls out here who had similar potty shots? I don’t know whether to book another scan somewhere else

A willy is quite obvious on these type of shots. I dont think they're wrong.

If you’re 15/16 weeks just wait a few weeks for your anomaly scan and then you’ll know for sure!

It’s only because people tell me about the ‘three lines’ but it’s not on my scan. But maybe it’s not clear on every girl ultrasound!

I think they're accurate about 85% of the time. I think it looks like a girl.

Why would you book another scan? It's not as though you'll never find out.

I can't interpret the scan as I have no idea what im looking at but they can absolutely get it wrong.
I know as it happened to me! Was told a girl but gave birth to a boy who was dressed pink and fluffy for his first week of life.

Idk I’ve heard stories about getting the sex wrong at 15/16 weeks. Hopefully I’ve got nothing to worry about :)

Looks like a girl to me.

Pretty sure they know what they are doing.
