3rd Trimester

Question from 2nd tri :0)

Hi!

I had my 17 week ultrasound today where my doctor said she was 90% sure I was having a boy!  How many of you found out early and had it be correct?

Just  curious! So exciting!!!!!

  • Usually they are more sure of a boy, but I'd be very cautious at 17 weeks.

  • At our 12 week NT scan, the ultrasound tech told us that she was pretty sure we were having a boy. She was right!  Of course we spent the time between 12 and 20 weeks wondering if we'd gotten all hyped up for a boy and then it would turn out we were having a girl.  I think at 17 weeks... especially since they are saying boy... that they are probably right, but I wouldn't start buying any gender-specific clothes just yet.  Better wait until the official scan to be safe!

  • I would be very cautious about this. We were told at 16 wk 5 days that we were having a boy. Nope she is all girl. At least i am pretty sure but at this point I wouldn't be surprised either way. We have had 4 u/s since then where they have all said girl and i see no boy parts.

    My H really really wants a boy. He is the last of his name and was over the moon the day the doc said she was a boy. I was worried he was getting his hopes up early and he took it VERY hard when we found out she was probably a girl. He tried to hide it but I could see he was upset for a few weeks after that.

    I don't think it is worth it to go through the heartache of getting it wrong. Trust me, once you find out you have a lot of time to enjoy it and anticipate it. It is worth waiting those few extra wks to be sure.

  • my sister found out at about 17 weeks that she was having a boy. They were pretty sure about and I think she did have a follow up a few weeks letter and he was still a boy. I didn't find until 20 weeks and their was no mistaken his boy parts. I mean the only time anyone can be totally sure on what it is, is in the delivery room.

  • We had a 3D/4D u/s at 13 weeks for our NT Scan and they told us we were having a boy...and they are correct!  We've had many more after that have confirmed a boy.  Also...we did not have u/s tech confirm it at 13 weeks...we had a Perinatologist.
