Hello! Had my gender scan and I’m now second guessing because I’m silly! The sonogropher was 100% sure this was a girl! And these pics do different hugely from my sons! Just double checking what everyone thinks, definitely a girl?

Honestly, what value would strangers reading the sonogram provide when the expert already told you it’s a girl? If you want a second opinion just pay for a private scan.

Agree. You have a highly qualified medical professional tell you it's a girl with full access to your baby. We're randomer on the Internet with a couple of blurry photos

Beth2016xxx · 13/05/2019 09:57

Lol nice! Because I’ve been sonographers post on here before and it’s not really a big deal is it in case others have had gender scans similar to mine. Nice to have positive comments though LOL

Others have posted for a bit of fun before they’ve had the official scan. You want random strangers, many of whom will lie, to verify an expert result. That’s clearly the problem here.

SleepingStandingUp · 13/05/2019 09:59

The positive comment is you had a professional tell you 100% she was certain

Beth2016xxx · 13/05/2019 09:59

Why comment at all then? You seem fun!

I can see a hamburger shape which indicates strongly to a girl

There’s no hot dog shape

I’m not qualified to say this at all, but from I can’t see you are definitely having a mermaid.

Beth2016xxx · 13/05/2019 10:06

Grin I have no idea how they see anything!

Soubriquet · 13/05/2019 10:25

Shall

The picture is a potty shot (a well hated mn phrase Grin)

It’s basically like looking up at the baby as if it’s sitting on a potty. It can give a very clear view of the genital area .

Scan pics are definitely girly, very much like the ones I have of my now 3 month old DD. Congrats

Cherry111 · 13/05/2019 10:59

I think it looks like a girl for sure, similar to mine. Congratulations x

Beth2016xxx · 13/05/2019 11:12

Thanks so much lovey! Congrats on your baby girl!

That's a girl congrats x

Pregnantagain99 · 13/05/2019 16:09

I did the same when told I was having a girl, I think mostly because I was convinced it was going to be a boy! I kept dreaming I'd given birth to a boy and my family went crazy on pink stuff and I kept thinking how stressful it would be returning everything if it turned out to be a boy lol.
I'm no expert but I googled a million scan pics to compare mine and yours looks very much girly to me 🙂
(And I did go on to give birth to a beautiful little girl!)

Beth2016xxx · 13/05/2019 16:46

Aw how reassuring thanks so much my lovely! That’s my fear! Because everyone’s gonna go over board I just know it on the pink’ thank you for being kind hehe! Xx

Go with the professional opinion, 99% of people on here (including myself) know zero about reading a scan.

ricepuddingme · 13/05/2019 17:14

The 3 small lines between the legs indicate a girl.

Congratulations on your pregnancy OP! I hope all is well.
