Gender Scan

Hi,
I went for a gender scan at 17 weeks and was told baby was a boy. This sonographer was confident and shared photos of baby boy.

I am 20 weeks today and at my NHS scan have been told that baby is a girl. The sonographer struggled as the baby had their legs crossed. They asked someone else to come in who also agreed it was difficult to see but they still agreed baby was a girl.

We are really just happy that baby is healthy but are wondering if this has happened to anyone else?
I’ll add photos of my 17 week scan that confirmed baby was male. I’ve booked a rescan so will find out then, just curious!

I went for another private scan and they were 100% convinced that baby is a boy.
I’ve been for a 4D scan since and it’s pretty clear.
I suppose it’s not really priority at the 20 week NHS scan to look for gender! Would recommend others getting a 2nd opinion though if they were solely relying on NHS scan 😅
