Maya I get that you're a bit excited but they've told you it a boy. Do you want us to debate that it might actually be a girl (with a clear set of balls and a penis between its legs)?

PinkHeart5914 · 12/10/2017 16:39

If a trained professional said it’s a boy, I reckon they are probably fairly spot on. Your having a boy!

Just looking at that picture, there is no denying at all that is a boy

Congratulations 🍼 🍼🍼

It’s not a gender scan.

Mayababy · 12/10/2017 16:42

She's clearly gone for a private scan. She's sixteen weeks and nhs doesn't do 4d !!!

KarateKitten · 12/10/2017 16:46

Dances, it's a 3D 16 week scan. So clearly not an anomoly scan. If you want to be really pointed you could have said it's a sex scan.

Mayababy · 12/10/2017 16:48

Lol thanks karatekitten and mothersofdragons.. the name of the thread is 16 week gender scan lol so not sure what makes you think it's an anomaly scan dances.. Yes I did go for a private gender scan.

Yeah it’s sex not gender

orangeowls · 12/10/2017 16:56

I’d say definitely a boy 😂

Mayababy · 12/10/2017 16:57

@youcantarguewithstupid.. So would you like to explain why the private clinics call it a "16 week gender scan".

@Mayababy because they’re not aware of the political issues around the terms sex and gender?

GinIsIn · 12/10/2017 17:20

I don't get why you are asking randoms online after a trained professional has told you and you can clearly see male genitalia in the photo though? Confused

Roxx1516 · 12/10/2017 17:26

Congrats @mayababy !! @youcantarguewithstupid if the private clinics call it a gender scan then why should we call it anything else. Gender (meaning) male or female, it doesn't matter, it's a gender scan to see if its male or female. Stop trying to correct people no one cares about the "Pollitical" issues its a load of shit! It's either a boy or a girl and it's called a gender scan weather you people like it or not

ChocolatePancake · 12/10/2017 17:27

Jesus wept. We're not allowed to say gender now? Congratulations on your boy by the way Flowers

Mayababy · 12/10/2017 17:34

Lol gosh is it wrong to ask for an opinion.. I know a trained professional has told me but I just wanted know from other mum's..
Thanks all you lovely ladies @chocolatepancake and @Roxx1516 xx

But you can literally SEE a penis - it's a bit like checking if water is wet Confused

Deeottto · 23/12/2023 19:11
