Team Pink?-U/S picture

JalberhaJalberha member
in April 2013 Moms

Out of curiousity...did any of you that are having a girl get an U/S picture of her vajayjay?

So when we went for our 20 week U/S the tech said that we were probably having a girl.  We looked at each other and said "Probably".  She was moving around a lot and we all saw the "three lines"  numerous times and not the "turtle" but she didn't take a picture. I guess it's not one of the required pictures.  She had me use the restroom  to try and get her to turn over so we could get a better look. When we looked again she said that we were having a girl.  I've had a easy pregnancy so far so I haven't had to have another U/S.  I haven't had an opportunity to look again.

Our families couldn't have been excited.  There are a lot of boys in both families and everyone was excited to buy pink stuff.  Well now everyone has gone crazy with pink things, including us.   Also, when we were telling people it was a girl my DH's grandmother asked for the US picture showing "it" or lack of "it". So I've always been a bit of doubt in the back of my mind because of this comment. I've always been a very anxious and paranoid person.  I keep questioning myself even though I saw the "three lines" at least 3 times.  Don't get me wrong, I will love our LO no matter what but I just don't want to disappoint anyone.  I haven't told anyone other than my husband about my doubt but people keep telling me stories of how they thought their LO was a girl but it turned out to be a boy.  They aren't helping!  Luckily, my husband keeps reassuring me that it is a girl.  He's very supportive and did a lot of research of what a girl looks like in an U/S.

Also, does anyone else have this doubt?  I'm scared to take tags off or wash anything pink!   Help me think I'm not crazy!  Hormones are taking over!  I'm almost 37 weeks and need to start washing some of her things.

    We are having a girl and the tech did give us a its a girl pic. I have had other u/s during NST tests but they never look and are always in a hurry to take measurements so I haven't asked.
    No matter what your having I thinks it's a bit unnerving to

    I totally had this fear.

    When we went for our anatomy scan we asked them to write it down, which they did. I had a fetal echo ultra sound at 24 weeks and she printed out a picture and included gender on picture.

    I was shown the "3 lines" at two different u/s. I'm hoping they were right, they see it all the time. I didn't get it but I just gotta trust it. We'll know soon enough.

    I kinda know what you mean.  We had an ultrasound with the high risk doctor at 20 weeks due to my age and the ultrasound tech and the doctor immediately said girl.  I could even see it was a girl before they told me. They had no doubt at all. &n

    We were only ever really given an 80% accuracy with either of our ultrasounds telling us it was a girl.  It was usually more along the lines of "we don't see any evidence saying it is a boy, so therefore it is a girl". There was never a distinct pict

    I had a good guess at 14 Weeks, confirmed with a different tech at both 16 Weeks and 20 Weeks, plus the Amnio. So after all that there is no doubt! I never got a good look at the goods either.

    TTC since May 2006. After 3 failed Clomid cycles, 2 failed Injectibles/IUIs, 2 failed IVFs and 1 failed FET, we moved on to adoption!

    Last ditch FET resulted in BFP, and identical twin girls!

    We were told girl at 20 weeks, we had the picture of the little lines.  I have had 2 more U/s because they thought she was small and each time the tech took a picture of the "hamburger" and pointed out that it's a girl.  So we have three girl

    We did have a picture of the "goods" at our a/s but honestly, after I showed the picture to a few family members I put it away and haven't looked at it again.  We ended up having two follow up u/s for medical issues and I had them check both times

    Do you think you could ask for another ultrasound to confirm??  I have had a perfect pregnancy and would have only needed the recommended number of ultrasounds but my dr office is AWESOME and I have had 5 (7 weeks, 13 weeks, 18 weeks, 32 weeks, and 3
