Sonogram today!!

in June 2014 Moms
Today I had my 16 week sonogram, i asked the technician if she can tell the gender. After looking for a few minutes she said, "do you want me to tell you what i think it is?" and told me she thinks boy. She said she is rarely wrong, but its just frustrating because I want to know for sure. Anyone else have a technician say what they "think" and not for certain?

    @snuff9861 although I agree.. you are certainly in a great mood today. How much do you love going into all these threads and adding commentary?
    Hey I came in to say the same thing and I am in an awesome mood.

    It's been in several threads today. Just making an observation.

    You will know for sure when baby is born. Even at 21 weeks when I had my a/s with DS the tech told me she was 99% sure. If you look at the picture it's pretty dang clear but it's not unheard of for ultrasound guesses to be wrong.

    Thank you so much for your thoughtful insight.  Maybe someday you can have the prestigious honor of being a website forum moderator and can move the thread to the appropriate location.

    Must be a reason then.
    Eh.. gets just as annoying after a while.

    lol.

    I had an elective gender scan done at 15 weeks 2 days and was given the sex/gender.  They clearly saw a penis/testicles.  She said she was positive, but I'm still waiting till my 21 weeks scan to feel 99% comfortable.  I think it's easier with boys though, with girl guesses the problem is that the testicles can sometimes not descend until much later so what they think is a girl ends up being a boy.  Based on the fact that the elective places start doing the scans at 15-16 weeks, I think you can be pretty comfortable saying that it's a boy.

    It's always a guess until baby is actually born. I doubt you're the only person to have a technician not be sure so early.





    I'm not new. I just hate The Bump.

    I had an ultrasound at 15w5d and the tech told me she was 1000 percent sure.  Not to mention that you could clearly make out boy parts on the monitor.  I would think that if she 'thinks' it' a boy then she had to have seen boy parts.
