I'm Currently Feeling:  | Accuracy of Sexing Scans
I know sexing scans have quite a high accuracy rating but not 100%, just wondered if anyone has experienced or knows someone that has had this told to them incorrectly?!?
Someone i know had a scan 6times after 20 weeks due to complications and everytime they told her it was a boy, and it turned out to be a girl! that was only about a month ago at the same hospital i am going to.
I thought (and was told off my MW) that if its a boy then they can tell morealess 100% but as my friend found out this wasn't quite true! and that if its a girl then it was a little harder to find out....... |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | Sexing scans are 90% accurate. There is always that 10% chance of it not being correct unless you saw the bits properly like Madwolf. |
