2nd Trimester

If you had your a/s at 18 weeks...

Did the tech have an issue seeing the sex?

Re: If you had your a/s at 18 weeks...

  • By the time I asked the tech for the sex (the last 2 minutes of the u/s cause I was supposed to be team green), she couldnt see it cause baby moved and put it's legs completely tight together.

    If I mentioned it earlier in the u/s, I think she would've seen it fine at some point (because baby could've been in a different position earlier).

    I have had 3 ultrasounds since, and they have since confirmed.

  • Not at all, They did, however, have a hard time getting all the shots they wanted because he was being a brat, and not positioned correctly. But we very clearly saw that he is a he.

  • We had ours at 19 weeks and the my LO had her legs crossed and the cord was in between her legs, We went back 2 weeks later and were able to see it was a girl.

  • My little one had her legs crossed tight, the tech tried going from the other side and said she didn't SEE anything so if she had to guess, shed say girl, but just to be sure I did an Elective and sure enough, shes a she :]

  • Had my DDs at 18 week and no issues whatsoever.  For this one her feet were up there so not a clear shot but enough that they were fairly certain
  • The only issue was he was moving a lot so the tech had to try different positions.

  • Had mine at exactly 18w and the tech (and later the MFM doctor) had no trouble telling us it's a boy.

  • I had my a/s at 17w4d with my first two babies and they told me that they were 100% sure of the sex.  I think it just depends how good of a shot they get.

    We're team green this time and I'm sure they know what we're having, but I didn't even ask if they could tell.  I don't want to know a thing :)

    We had ours at 18 weeks and she could clearly see it's a boy. She had to jostle my belly a bit to get him to move his legs around though, but we had a great tech and saw him "waving his flag" not long after that. Thought that description was hilarious, haha.
