Topic: Anatomy/Gender Scan Posted: 15 January 2009 at 1:09pm |
Hello
Just out of curiosity, have you had your anatomy scan and did you find out the gender of your baby?
Do share your experience / scan pic / baby's gender here!
We're having ours at 19 weeks + on the 27th Jan... can't wait! Hope we get to see the gender

1st baby!

We didn't find out the gender when I was pg with Jack and we won't with this baby either. Although I am quite a planner, I like the surprise.

I am far too impatient, I found out the sex of our baby.
I double checked it at 36 weeks when I had a growth scan lol and I saw it clear as day. A little girl.
I only told the Dec group and shared a pic there too.

We found out at the scan.
The Sonographer had to point it out to me, and I was a little skeptical, but she explained that as there were no "dangly bits" she was definitely a girl

lol, we got a clean shot riiight between the legs, and most def a girl... lack of dangly bits, and the 3 white lines to say girl so there was no denying it... about as shy as big brother was lol (he bared all for the world to see as well)
wierd thing is, we got the perfect potty shot, but couldnt get to her heart or face at all... little so and so playing difficult already!
will edit with a pic later once I can get a clear enough pic from the pics

We had the gender scan, but as Elizabeth wouldn't open her legs we didn't know either way, she was our little surprise, her dad really wanted a boy while I was pregnant but when we finally got to meet our baby he fell in love and now doesn't even want to try for a boy as he's afraid we can't make perfect twice!

We found out the gender at our 20wk scan also. Sonographer was 100% sure she was a girl, and though I have studied the dvd of the scan countless times, I can't really tell what is what down there lol

I had 2 scans at 20 weeks, a day apart & the second day we got toliet shots although on the first day we did find out that we are having a little boy.
This picture was done for my DH who was working in Oz at the time. I had a 28 week 4D scan done in Oz & he had his legs crossed for his Daddy but at my growth scan at 34 weeks & my check up scan last week the legs were wide open & DH missed all those too

We are due to have ours on 3rd Feb, Im unsure if I want to find out the sex or not. I have mulled it over in my head so many time and I still dont know. I have decided that because DF doesnt really get much say in the whole pregnancy, the he can decide if we find out the sex. At first he said NO but now he is starting to sway, I think by scan day he will have decided to find out.

I went for a date scan at 12 weeks and found out it was twins which was a total shock! DH didn't want to know the sex but by the time we went back at 18 weeks he couldn't help himself. We were hoping for one of each but now that we have 2 beautiful healthy baby girls we couldn't be happier

We had our scan this morning and DH had to actually ask her to check as she'd started to pack up. She had a quick look then and said "I think this looks like a penis" but I have a low lying placenta and have to go back at 32 weeks for another scan so we can double check then. I've had a "feeling" all along that we were having a boy. I'll update with pics when I get a decent one of the video, the three she gave us are crap.
