Scan Question

[Jen & Her Men]

This has probably been asked a million times before so sorry!

But I wanted to know whether you could tell by accident what the sex of the baby is on the 20 week scan cos I am a bit worried that we will see and we dont want to find out.

you'll know when the sonographer is moving down... so just keep ur eyes away lol... i think it would be hard to tell yourself anyway

Not according to my DH. Apparently if its a boy we will be able to tell a mile off!! He was banging his chest in an ape styley as he said it.....

i had to say to her, can u tell us the sex?

Well..... I saw a willy and some testicles... they pointed it out to me... When we went back three weeks later the willy and testicles had dropped off and it was a girl....

Now I have had 3 scans, where the consultants have had a GOOOOOOD look in that area and because of all the confusion the last two times, a great deal of time was spent looking!!!!! But to tell you the truth... I couldn't actually tell...I trusted the consultants when they said "theres the willy, theres the testicles, theres the vagina... "

Feet, arms, hands are obvious, but not that area... you really have to be very trained.

Besides.. theres no guarantee if you see a willy this time round there will be one the next or when it pops out....trust me... I HAVE EXPERIENCE... and now I have lots of little baby boy clothes, a blue travel system AND a very blue bedroom for the arrival of my little girl to prove it..
