Just this really! Was your gender scan at 16 weeks right? I know a few people who have had them done and got told it was a girl and out popped a boy. Wondered what your experience was around this time in pregnancy with gender scans 😀

Yes it was for my twins….one of each 😄.

FastAndLast · 15/09/2023 18:39

Yes it was.

bettynutkins · 15/09/2023 18:42

Yep mine was

GigiAnnna · 15/09/2023 18:43

Yes with all 4.

It’s not a gender scan though is it. They can tell you what they think it might be but it’s not gospel. It’s a scan to check the baby is growing ok and to see if everything is alright.

Mine was wrong. Told 99% sure a boy. Then at 32 weeks when i asked if they could double check if their was a willy they told me definetly a girl (and she was!)

Isn't that the 20 week anomaly scan though? Maybe OP means a private scan to discover sex (not gender) at 16 weeks.

Yes I had mine at 14 weeks

You can book private scans at 16 weeks specifically for that reason

Motherofalittledragon · 15/09/2023 18:50

Yes with all my children

Whatdoiladymcbeth · 15/09/2023 18:52

Mine was wrong at 17 weeks. Was told it was 'most likely a girl' was very obviously a boy at 20 weeks.

Libmama · 15/09/2023 18:53

Yes my private gender scan at 16 weeks told me she was a girl… and she is!

Roselilly36 · 15/09/2023 18:54

Sex was correct with both of my two at 20 weeks.

HawdMeBack · 15/09/2023 18:59

Mine were right, both times.

SallyWD · 15/09/2023 19:06

Yes with both my children

TheWitche · 15/09/2023 19:07

Yea with all 3 but I think it’s easier to identify boys rather than girls!

Emsxox · 15/09/2023 20:39

Yes ours was, had a 16 week scan last month and confirmed girl in 20 week scan by nhs xx

PickledScrump · 15/09/2023 20:51

Unfortunately not guaranteed. I know someone who was told girl at 16 weeks and it wasn’t until a growth scan at 36 weeks found out it was actually a boy.

DoloresOnTheDottedLine · 15/09/2023 21:27

Mine was wrong! Was told boy at private 16 week scan and then at 21 week NHS scan, they (correctly) said girl.

GreenAventurinee · 15/09/2023 21:29

I’ve been told at 18 weeks, twenty weeks, 28 weeks and 30 weeks but I still won’t beleive it until baby is here.
