Gender scan results, How true were they?
G/C from DIF.
Hello ladies, I was wondering if you asked at your 20 week scan the gender of your babies, how accurate were they?
My sonographer appeared to have no sense of humour and when I asked she gave me the speech about it not being 100% etc, and then said "There appears to be no sign of gonads"
What a bizarre way to tell me she thought my LO was a girl.
With only 3-5 weeks left to meet our LO I am thinking mre and more about how accurate this is, soooooo......
How accurate was it for anybody else that asked?
Thanks for taking the time to reply to me.

I'm sure mistakes are made occassionally but I've never known anyone it has happened too.

I have been told I have a little man on board this time & hubby said he could defo see his tinkler.
My friend is a midwife & recently there was a baby boy dressed in pink on her ward so it does happen!!
She said it's true that with girls it's harder to be sure cos the 'gonads' could still be waiting to drop - then again I guess with a boy it could be the cord instead of the willy!!
the sonographer also told us that they're right 9 times out of 10 but most of the ones that are wrong were told they were girls.
i do know someone who was told she was having a girl and only found out it was a boy at a later scan that she had due to complications so it does happen.

Sorry for rambling, i just thought it be useful to have a few examples, lol.

Luckily I have lots of white/cream newborn babygros, so probably best I pack those in my bag!!
Bit of a shock but we'd had alot of problems getting PG and had had 2 M/C and an Ectopic, so we really didn't mind. Luckily the nursery was yellow and the shops let us change most of the clothes.
No. 2 is due in 4 weeks, have been told this one is a boy, and they gave us a big close up of his bits so we are pretty confident this time, apparantly they don't get it wrong this way round.
I'm not bothered either way, we already have 2 boys so another one to add to my tribe would be great. Equally a little girl would be lovely.
The draw full of pink babygros will just have to wait and see!!
Thanks again everyone.
At 20 weeks scan we were told was a boy and at a 4d scan around 28 weeks they couldn't be totally sure but said thought was a girl so I stopped shopping and decided baby's arrival was best way to see the gender- the 2nd one was right
There's always ebay for the clothes
I'll come back on here once baby is born and let you all know the result. Only 3-5 weeks to wait
