Sex of baby

[linnij]

Hi, I had my 20 weeks scan yesterday and found out the sex of my baby. I found out last time too. The sonographer said there is a 1 in 10 chance of it being wrong. Has anyone had it happen? They were right with my first child. xxx

I think it's more likely to be wrong if they say it's a girl as the bits could be behind something iykwim. If they say it's a boy there is less of a margin for error xx

I was told the same as Isabellasmum.

I know of 2 people that were told what they were having and it came out the other

They were right with both of mine

Well they showed me the area involved. They said it was a girl! (so that will be 2 girls). The area had nothing to show for it and it was a very clear view but... she did say there isn't always something if it is a boy.Hmmm! They said dd1 was a girl and she was, tho we didn't get anything til she was born.xxx

Awwwwwww! A girl! How lovely!

I work with some one who was told she was having a boy on 3 occasions (she was monitored as she measured small and only put on 10lbs in total throughout her pregnancy!) so she decorated the nursery blue and bought all boys things. She actually had a girl!

I have heard the same as isabellas mum.
I was told i was having a boy, they were correct.

I have 3 girls and 2 boys. Didn't know on the girls but did on the boys and both right. I heard about them getting more wrong if they say its a girl too, my sister has had 4 girls been told girls on the scan and all right so guess sometimes its just luck. Congratulations, bet you can't wait.

I am looking forward to it. Just want Christmas out of the way. It seems to be dragging as I found out at 5 weeks! If it is a girl it will be much easier first off as we have girl things, just a mad dash if it's a boy! It will be lovely having two girls (dd1 is quite boyish anyway hee hee!) just got to get on with picking names now. It's so hard and especially ones that go with the child's name you already have. xxx

Ooh I asked the sonographer about getting it wrong and she said it's 50/50 boys being girls and girls being boys cos I thought it was just the girls too!
