Baby boy? (Including pictures)

So I had a private gender scan at 16 weeks 4days and they confirmed 100% boy. I went for my 20 week scan yesterday at 22 weeks 2 days and they couldn’t confirm as he kept his legs clamped shut🤦🏼‍♀️ Some reassurance would be great!! I’m pretty sure its a boy?

I don't think the comments of amateurs will really help when professionals told you it was a boy (at 16wk) and that they couldn't see (at 20wk). I doubt if anyone here can tell you better than them ?

If they said 100% boy at the first scan, it's unlikely they made a mistake. Medical equipment has improved tremendously in the past few decades and it's pretty hard to miss a penis.

If this is really bothering you, you can always get another private scan. But otherwise I wouldn't worry and just assume that you'll have a baby boy in a few months.

Incidentally, it's more common to be wrong when predicting a girl. If they don't see the penis, it can mean they've missed it. But if they saw it, it's unlikely it was anything else ! So you shouldn't worry about this.
