what do you girls think my baby is going to be? I was 11 weeks in this ultrasound some people say that boys grow faster than girls is it true?

OperaSingerMommy

Hi there.  I have honestly never heard that boys grow faster than girls and this type is thread isn't typically very well-received on these message boards.  

We have an Old Wives Tales thread a bit further down the page if you'd like to check in there but please keep in mind that it's just for fun.  None of us can actually tell you whether you are having a boy or a girl.  Congrats on your pregnancy.

Someone said it before.  We are being punked.

QFP.  For when OP deletes after she finds out we don't read ultrasound photos here.

I clicked on this thread thinking a pregnant mama might really need help with something, but I'm no wizard, and I can't tell what sex your baby is by a blurry black and white ultrasound photo, so I'll just move along...

Looks like a butternut squash to me.  Congrats!

It actually does haha!

At 11 weeks there is no way that your baby's sex can be determined on ultrasound. Also even if it were possible, most of us here are not radiologists/OBGYNs/ultrasound techs. If your ultrasound tech/doctor couldn't tell you, then we certainly can't

YESSS! Seriously, on my former BMB, we were punked by another BMB. They started several ridiculous threads like we have had lately. Maybe that's happening again.

I don't know.... looks like a nutter butter to me.

Yup, called it! Must be a slow day on the May & June BMBs...

OperaSingerMommy

At least we never fail to give life to their Drama Llama thread lol.

Thanks

LOL

That is all. 

Actually no, also want to add this gif because it explains what I'm feeling so well.

Ugh sorry guys. I've been going to other sites advertising our BMB as expert ultrasound gender guessers and lovers of all drive-by bare bellies and side boobs. My bad. 

virginiaunicorn11

I have two due dates. One is a week later if it's a girl, and one is earlier if it's a boy. Since they grow at different rates. Totally true.

longhairdntcare

why. just why. 

LuLiLaEv

Why don't these people just get the blood test done so they can find out early? 

tuxielove93

@LuLiLaEv Because it's more fun to annoy everyone around them, including themselves. 

So if there is ANY legitimacy to this at all, there is NO WAY you can tell from a side angle shot at 11 weeks. Come on. Your U/S tech may MAY be able to give you a clue, but that's it. It's just a hint. Mine gave us a "probably boy" at 12 weeks 4 days because you could see a large growth between his legs that was a little too big to be a girl. But she could still be wrong. We can't tell from this angle. 11 weeks is probably too early period. And get off the crazy internet train. Boys grow faster than girls, yeesh. 

AdaByron

@jayjenni13 it's definitely a girl. You're welcome.

kat0607

From that angle it looks like a baby bird. 

Rotu101

You guys are killing me with the replies. 

SPurp13

It looks sort of like a wiener dog...but also like a burrito. A big one, though, totally loaded up with beans and shit. So, it's probably a boy. I'd put it at at least 85% that it's a dude.

@jayjenni13

If an OB / doctor can't tell you until about 20 weeks what makes you think we can?

Here's my opinion / guess - since each pregnancy is different I am guessing you're having a human baby.

Like a PP said, there's an old wives tales thread going on. Try there.

I mean there's a 50/50 chance it could be a baby. But that's also just a guess.
