Gender reassurance

Please reassure me that this is a girl. We had an elective scan at 16 weeks and were told a girl. We have a son already so a girl was my hope. I've read of them being wrong so I'm being paranoid about it.. Waiting for my 20 scan is driving me nuts!

  • You won't get much help on this board but maybe try the What to Expect app, I've lurked in there a few times and it seems most of them don't mind guessing sex.

    It's sex of your child not gender. A person's gender, has to do with more of his or her own self-identity or roles and stereotypes that society considers normal or acceptable behaviours.
    Androids don't let you post pics.
    You should really have faith in a trained tech, because as far as I'm aware no one is a qualified Ultrasound Tech.
  • Yes, you are having a girl!!
  • First there is a post on how to post from phone but as you posted this you haven't used the search function. But if you still feel the need to post the picture even though we can't give you a guess any better than an 8 ball. You must go through browser on phone not the app to post pictures.
  • Oh jeez. Its okay gurl just hold your nerves and listen to your doc. Imagine if you got advice here THEN you would worry about what we said.

    Your u/s tech is definitely a better judge of your baby's sex (not gender, as others have already pointed out) than any of us Bumpies will be.  I would trust them.  If you're really concerned, just hold off on registering/buying stuff until your anatomy scan when they can get a better look at more developed features.
  • If you were told it's a girl then chances are good that it is a girl. They could be wrong though and with or without your ultrasound images I have no way of knowing. Honestly I hardly know what I'm looking at when the tech or doc are describing it to me on the screen.

    You women on this thread are all nuts. What does this app pay you guys on policing every single question asked. If so let me know so I can join and get paid to. Don't say gender it's sex of the child lol. Some of you women most be over 40.
    Wait. What?
  • nqualo30 said:
    Once again you guys really must be getting paid for policing every single thing someone writes. Correcting every single word. Someone can't even ask a question without the typical people which most of the time it's the same women saying something. You women must drive your husbands nuts and yes most of yall must be old. No need for the face. You guys are nuts.
    Once again, can you clarify what age has to do with anything?
  • Wow it doesn't feel good does it being attacked. That's all you guys do is attack. You guys didnt give her advise, instead put up memes showing your annoyed and responding extremely rude. So please with your little unicorn example.

    Had she used her waiting period properly, perhaps she could have avoided being "attacked."
  • Yeah if you call that helping go ahead. Love the troll pic it's cute haven't seen one of those in years lol. Oh and happy to help.

    We all felt @angieandjakebailey had it covered pretty well and nothing else needed to be said. 
  • Thanks to admitting she was being attacked. Respect given to you for the knowledgment instead of troll pics.

    Wow. Please tell me that you are an ultrasound tech or have magical ute googles that can see inside each poster's body through the computer screen. If not, you are not qualified, the same as us to give an answer. This is not being mean this is being truthful. We should not sit around saying to each one of these poster "Ohhh gurl your Doctor is totes wrong it's a glitter unicorn or whatever you want it to be".
    I read this in your dog's voice and it made me spit out water.

    WTAF? Lady you have literally given nothing but a handful of complaints on this board wow what a great contributor you've been. You and I are both not qualified to make a gander on the genetalia of her unborn child. Particularly because she doesn't believe the person she paid to tell her if it was innie or outie. It sounds like the OP wants a different answer than what she was told by the professionals. I can't magically change her kid's genetalia nor tell her if it is what she wants it to be. Too bad, I'm not a Doctor, otherwise I might be rich.
