Looks like a girl to me!
Look for a burger for a girl and a hotdog for a boy 😂

Yukbuck · 07/03/2018 13:46

Oh okay. I was just confused if you didn't want to find out but are asking any way!
Looks like girl is unanimous! Good luck with birth 😊

LeighaJ · 07/03/2018 13:47

A girl? Confused I've had a lot of scans with some looking more like a baby then others and I honestly have to agree with Dave...it looks like an eel.

Sorry I couldn't help. 🙈

nursenancy43 · 07/03/2018 13:48

@LeighaJ all this is imaging s the legs not the whole baby which explains why it doesn't look like a whole baby...

Wow I'm shocked how certain some are, makes me feel like I need to brush up on my sonographer skills (or lack thereof). 😁

Blahdyblaah · 07/03/2018 13:50

Sil was told at numerous scans she was having a girl and had a boy so don't rush out and buy pink just yet Grin

reallyanotherone · 07/03/2018 13:52

No privacy anywhere these days, even for an unborn baby. Close up shot of genitalia on the internet before they take their first breath.

It makes me feel a bit uncomfortable, tbh.

nursenancy43 · 07/03/2018 13:55

@Blahdyblaah oh no I won't be buying anything coloured until baby is here, this was just curiosity!

LeighaJ · 07/03/2018 13:55

Ah okay. I've never received any scan pics like that.

Usually have only received 1 pic per scan of overall body and none from 32 week scan due to her position.

We had a 4d babybond scan at 30 weeks but was mostly focused on her face and body overall since her measurements had already just been fully documented at 28 weeks and we've known gender since week 14.

nursenancy43 · 07/03/2018 14:23

@LeighaJ I've never received a scan pic like this either which is why I'm asking if it's a below leg shot because I can't figure out what else it could be! Wonder if there are any sonographers Grin

Girl! Classic burger bap Wink

PinkyBlunder · 07/03/2018 15:02

FWIW I’m mostly sure it’s a girl but....

You didn’t ask the sonographer because you didn’t want to find out but you’re asking people what they think the sex is...? You are aware there will be sonographers and very experienced sex spotters on MN aren’t you?

nursenancy43 · 07/03/2018 15:06

@PinkyBlunder we didn't intend to find out at all. It was only after going through my notes I spotted this photo and wondered if anyone who had had a similar scan would know which is was.

As this is in Aibu yes I think you are being unreasonable for asking when you didn't want to find out!
But that's an obvious girl

CantPlanThisWedding · 08/03/2018 06:45

That's almost definitely a girl, 3 lines clear as day. If your baby has male genitals they would be pulling a Houdini to hide them from this angle at that gestation.

I've got a shot like this for both my DC (one boy and one girl) and it's really obvious which is which.

FailingMotherhood · 08/03/2018 07:18

Yeah, when my son was scanned at 20 weeks from underneath, the sonographer asked awkwardly, "Er, did you want to know the gender?"

There wasn't any hiding it, his tackle was clear as day! :D

nursenancy43 · 08/03/2018 07:39

Thanks for comments and opinions!

Bodicea · 08/03/2018 07:43

This can’t be in the uk. No sonogapher I know would take a picture of this shot and then allow the patient to see it especially if they said they didn’t want to know the sex!!

bottleofbeer · 08/03/2018 07:44

Definitely girl.

kaytee87 · 08/03/2018 07:50

Looks like a girl to me.

nursenancy43 · 08/03/2018 09:38

@bodicea yeah Im scotland. It was on a reel of photos that were printed out at once!

OP posts:
Tattybogle89 · 08/03/2018 09:46

Definitely a girl
Congratulations!
Although the eel comment made me laugh 😂

Pinkvoid · 08/03/2018 09:53

Girl. My DS had a VERY pronounced penis on the scan, it was hard to miss Grin.

nursenancy43 · 08/03/2018 10:01

My sons was really pronounced on his scan too we saw it straight away! Would be delighted to have one of each but the only thing that matters is that baby is happy and healthy!!

It looks exactly like dd's picture.

With ds and now ds2 (21 weeks pregnant with him) they were very very clear to see their parts.

10 weeks left how exciting.
