1st Trimester

10w twin u/s PIP + gender guesses!?

The sonographer made a very very ridiculously tentative guess that we have B/G twins!!  Both were measuring 2 days ahead with heartbeats at 170 and 166!  Here are some photos:

Girl?  She said the 3 lines look like girl parts.

Boy?  This "sticking out part" had more tissue to it.  Those are the feet together on the left.

And lastly, top of head and hands of Baby A (our boy?)

Re: 10w twin u/s PIP + gender guesses!?

  • Awesome pics congrats! When do you have your big u/s? I'm curious to see if the tech was correct.

  • I'm not sure: I guess 16 weeks?  I'm probably going to get the NT scan if my insurance covers it.

  • What awesome pictures! I'm so jealous! I wish we could see our beanies again...

    Are you starting to show yet? I have a tipped uterus so thinking I may not show for another couple weeks. My nausea has returned to me, thank goodness (haha)

    Not really, just fat!  I'm wearing mat. clothes for comfort, but I'm not "out" at work, so still hiding there.  I have a feeling that I will be showing soon, though!  How are you feeling?  When do you have your next u/s?

  • Love the pictures!

    I loved getting my u/s and seeing our LO, but I have to admit, I was a little sad later when I thought that we NOT be having twins.  I think they are ADORABLE.

    I'm going to make an AWESOME big brother.

  • Not to be a debbie downer, but I didn't think the sex parts were distinguishable until 14 weeks?  I know they form b/f then, but again they're not distinguishable that early.  ::shrugs::  If so, congrats!!! 
  • Congrats on the twins! 

    Just wanted to point out that biologically, boys and girls have the same genitalia at 10 weeks - we all start out looking "female."  At 10 weeks, differentiation of the external genitalia is just beginning;  the penis isn't recognizable until 12-14 weeks.  So for the sonographer to make a guess at this point makes no sense.

    So don't go painting the nursery just yet!  But I have to say, your pics are soooo cool!

    no, she definitely disclaimed multiple times that it was just a guess, but there WERE recognizable differences - the tissue in the area was thicker on one, and the other had three thin lines.  It was really just for fun, but we'll see if she was right in a couple of months!!  definitely NOT banking on anything :)
