Ultrasound Pic - Question

So, we just had our ultrasound this week at 17.5 weeks.  It's a baby GIRL!!  BUT, when I showed the picture to some of my Mom friends they were questioning whether it looked like maybe it could be boy....

Any thoughts?

    Looks like a girl to me. Google "boy ultrasound" you can see a penis and scrotum on a boy u/s

    We are having a boy and believe me his boy parts were very noticeable.  I think that's a girl :-)

    Same here! This is boy #2 for us and on both U/Ss, the parts were very definitive. That looks like a girl to me. :)

    I would trust the ultrasound tech, who does this for a living, over your mom's friends.

    Oh yeah, definitely trust your friends rather than a trained professional.

    Could be that her bits are a little swollen - I have heard of that happening especially when you find out on the earlier side.  But looks like a girl to me!!  Congrats!! :)

    The tell tail sign are those "three lines". I thought the same thing as your mom's friend when they showed me DD's goods, but she's all girl!

    I tend to listen to my ultrasound tech with experience and credentials over well-meaning but nosey random moms.

    I think the little nub is what is throwing you (&/or your mom's friends) off. There is a photo of a 17 week old's girl parts on this website:

    If you scroll down to it, you will see there is still a sizable nub on 17 week girl fetuses.
