Oh, the irony.

As some of you recall, I posted a while back about a family friend who is expecting. She took an "early sex determination" kit around 11 weeks to see what she was having. The test said she was having a boy. She just found out today she is in fact having a girl. She had a name picked out and told everyone it was a boy. People are now freaking out asking what happened. I can't help but laugh because all she had to do was wait for a real sonogram. Moral of the story, folks..... Do not trust $35 sex determination kits.

Sadly she isnt going to be the last to use one of these and have the gender wrong

She posted something today saying again that she cannot believe its a girl, and how she isn't prepared for it at all. I feel like a jerk but I just can't stop laughing to myself about this.

Is that what the test is called? I never knew its name. @MandJS - she picked out only a boy name and decorated the nursery in boy things, from what I heard. It never occurred to her to wait for the anatomy scan.

Yep. I will never understand why people put stock in that. I mean, think about it...you pee in a cup every appointment and they can't tell you the baby's sex without an u/s or genetic screening. Common sense.
