Hello everyone
At 16 weeks i had a private scan because we did a gender reveal i did have the chance to find out live.
So when i open the file and a saw the picture because i have already a son i Wasn't sure that i was looking it was a penis! I will like to add as well that the doctor he was young when when he was talking about the well be of my baby he didn't sound confident! I put the pictures below please tell me what you think

Definitely looks like a boy!

Tellto · 30/01/2021 15:53

looks like a clear boy to me

WalkingMeAway · 30/01/2021 15:57

Definitely a boy in my opinion. Looks the same as my sons scan

Takingontheflab · 30/01/2021 16:04

Thats a boy...... did you want a girl?

1940s · 30/01/2021 16:05

That's very clearly a boy. Did you want a girl?

Squashpocket · 30/01/2021 16:05

That's a penis

OverTheRainbow88 · 30/01/2021 16:05

Amazes me how people can see that in a scan!

I can barely work out where the head is!!

Chelyanne · 30/01/2021 16:05

I can't see why you have doubts.
That is a boy!

Sofiapas · 30/01/2021 16:07

Because i had already a son and in the same week look more clear it look like the umbilical cord to me for some reason

Thank you for everyone answers
The reason I have my doubts is because the baby is looking my back and the umbilical cord as well and i can't see in the left what is leg and if you can see the umbilical cord as well! We didn't have any preference to the gender just the picture make me have doubts because 8n my son you could see 2 white line and the penis very clear.

The doctor was young? Medical school decides your qualifications, not age...

Moominmiss · 30/01/2021 16:35

I’d definitely say boy. Looks absolutely nothing like any of my 3 daughters scan pics from when we found out their gender.

Sofiapas · 30/01/2021 16:39

Sure i agree about age but to be a sonografer and a good one you need couple of years of experience! If you look the stats not everyone are very experienced in young age that's I'm try to say! I have read late an article in uk who sonografer fail to see a serious disease in the baby and mother learn at 20 weeks her baby had one day of life. Apparently the sonografer it wasn't qualified and experienced! That's the reason i wrote that we live in a crazy world i want put my had on fire for no one! Thank you for answer

Sofiapas · 30/01/2021 16:42

Just the rush 5 minutes scan and weird position and bad picture make me have doubts!

Absolutely no doubt that it's a boy. Clear as day.

That's because there isn't a head as such in that picture, literally looking through the body from the very top. Always freaks me out! 😄
mumof23188 · 30/01/2021 19:13

Can clearly see his penis! Baby is definitely a boy. Congratulations!

OverTheRainbow88 · 30/01/2021 19:34

@Mummyof2Terrors

Oh jeez!!! I’ve never seen a scan pic like that before!!!

Sofiapas · 30/01/2021 20:15

@Sofiapas sometimes it’s hard to work out what’s what on these scans but can definitely see he’s a boy 😄

ivfbeenbusy · 30/01/2021 21:01

If you weren't going to trust what you'd been told by the "expert" why on earth did you pay for a private scan??? The scan is 100% all boy

The first time when i visit the same place i could see my boy penis very clear and i even said the gender before the sonographer! So this time to get that picture and general horrible picture and i pay 70 pounds I'm disappointed 😥 Thank you for the answer

@ivfbeenbusy my thoughts exactly. See this all the time. I dont understand why bother paying for early scans to then go and doubt the professional and go on the opinion of a handful of unqualified women.

samanthawashington · 31/01/2021 09:51

Statistically it is more likely to be a boy anyway
