Question

Gender


at our 20-weeks-scan the sonographer said he assumes a girl but he is not entirely sure!

I would like to ask you guys, whether you where given a definite statement about the gender of the baby!

and what you think, how likely it is we are going to have a girl!

somehow, an inner voice is telling me that we will have a surprise at birth

I don't think it's possible to ever be givin a definite answer on those scans?? could be wrong though. People have been told they're having a girl/boy, only to see the opposite sex on the day!!

We were told at 20 weeks that we were having a girl (she thought). Luckily though, I was booked in for another scan (at about 21-22 weeks) and a different sonographer said girl again. Then we had a 4d scan later on, she said it was a girl too! so there wasn't much doubt in my mind.

Maybe get a 4d scan if you were thinking of one anyway? they're lovely and I think it's a little clearer to see.

They say on the letters they issue that if you are wishing to find out the gender its never garunteed.

When I went for mine they said they were pretty certain its a girl but they cant give a definate answer.

I know as well I had to have 2 scans at 20 weeks cos they couldnt get a heart scan at my first one so i had to go back a week later and the second sonographer also said shes pretty sure its a girl.

At our 20 week scan, she said that she didn't want to commit to naming the gender, BUT pointed out a bulge, and said that it could be a boy.

So I have no idea, my husband thinks it's a boy, but I don't have a 'feeling' at all of what it is. Guess we'll just find out at the end.

we went for a 4D-scan last sunday!

but they wanted to have extra money for every additional question.

they didn't tell us the gender as we didn't pay for it, although I tried and asked

let's see...

I went private ... and it wasn't a gender scan they asked me woudl I want to know the sex incase the referred to him or her - I already knew and told her confirmation would be great but basically I'd have been told if I didn't know!

At the hospital 20 week scan the lady was 100% sure but still had to sign a piece of paper to confirm I wanted to know & I think the fact if they are wrong they are not at fault blah!

that was babypremier

we paid £95 for a 4D-bonding-scan which was mainly focused on facial expressions (baby was asleep though )
for every additional information, like gender, weight, size etc. we would have had to pay extra
