Has anyone been told the wrong sex at a 16 week scan?

Had a private gender scan (I know it’s sex but they call it gender scan before anyone comes at me lol) at 16 weeks, we got told it’s a girl but I’m just seeing if anyone has actually been told the incorrect sex before? Potty shot attached for reference 😅

For my first one, I was told at 12 weeks it was a girl and it ended up being a girl.
For my second, I was told at 16 week it looked like a girl and at 21 weeks I was told it was a boy. Ended up being a boy.

I have had three gender scans at 16 weeks (different babies each time obviously haha) and all were correct. I've got two girls and a boy and my girls potty shots looked exactly like yours and they are 100% girls lol! 🩷

I was told that it was a girl at 20 week scan to find out at 36 weeks that it was a boy.

I was told my twins were both girls. They were one of each.

At 20 and 32 weeks they said girl. A very well endowed ds arrived... Not sure how they missed THAT...

I got told girl at 16 weeks and 20 week scan confirmed boy! He is definitely a boy so don't know where he was hiding at 16 weeks! Have you had it confirmed yet? 🫣

Oh wow that doesn’t look like a boy at all on there! At the 20 week scan she also agreed it looked like a little girl and was showing me the lines so that’s 2 people now 😅 if they’re born a boy then they’ll be dressed in pink for a few months at least 🤣
