Pregnancy Scans/Scams!!!!!

[ohanotherone]

For those using NHS services, if you want to know the sex of your baby do you have to pay to know???

I want to know the sex of my baby if possible but the NHS trust charges £50, not for a separate scan for just telling during the 20 week scan. I think this is tantamount to exortion. I appreciate some people are not bothered either way but I think that as a parent if a total stranger can see the sex of the baby and I want to know the sex, they sould not ask for £50 to tell me information that does not cost them anything.

The purpose of the scan isn't to get to know the sex. It's to check everything's OK. I can see why they charge tbh, a private scan would set you back much much more.

And you may not even have to pay. My ds was quite obviously a boy, even to my untrained eye
