This is a penis right?!

Hkalevitch · September 2014

So the doctor said she thinks 99% sure were having a boy but she can't be positive until the 20 week u/s... But I'm dying to be POSITIVE! Boy right?!

Is this a joke? Am I on Candid Camera?

But it looks like a penis to me.

maltwin1 · September 2014

In my experience, 99% sure from a medical professional with a picture to go along with it is the very best you can get until you are actually holding your baby and can check for yourself.

jknallen · September 2014

Your entire name is in the pic. Just so you are aware.

Biscotto · September 2014

Your name. Edit the picture.

MapleMomma · September 2014

I don't know, I've never seen one.

Buwahaha. Seriously. We are not trained to read your ultrasound. If you want to be sure visit a physic.

CatLadyTX · September 2014

Is this for real? OP, do you know what a penis looks like?

empiregrl5 · September 2014

Looks like boy to me! At least it's the right picture and not a profile pic! =D>

chickyclg · September 2014

Your name!!!!

AshleySparkle720 · September 2014

I mean...I've never seen a vagina stick out like that..?

Hkalevitch · September 2014

Wow, are we in high school? I know my name is in it. I wasn't afraid of my name being in it for any reason until I read these replies. Thanks for making me feel like shit when I was just trying to have some reassurance.

schnitz9 · September 2014

They are just trying to look out for your internet safety. Having your full name for strangers to see is not a good move. Also you've been around this board for over a month. You should know that these kinds of posts don't go over well and always end like this. Best suggestion if a tech says 99% sure trust them on that. No one can say 100% sure these days. They always have to leave room for error. Coming on here and posting a pic of your child's genitals is not fun for us. This is very evident on the many flamed posts over the past 6 weeks. Your are not the only one and people aren't going to change their options as well.

Hkalevitch · September 2014

I had no idea. I had just been reading horror stories of people being told one gender then weeks later being told another and I was just looking for some reassurance. Thank you for being nice about it. I had no idea there were such "hot topics" on these boards. I've been around a month but not on the boards. Thanks again

How is this a horror? Would it be that big of a travesty if the baby turned out to be a girl. In my opinion I wouldn't worry. As long as the baby is healthy who care what the sex is. People who get all upset that the baby turned out to be a different sex are to me acting a bit selfish. Just be happy your kid is healthy and has all their fingers and toes.

I would not consider this a "horror story" (finding out the sex prediction was wrong)

there are many more things that can "go wrong" with pregnancy, finding our your baby is a different sex than what you thought a few weeks before is not the end of the world or rank high on my list of "horrors"

Calm down sweetheart, we let you know for internet safety . If you don't care about that go head and tell is more privileged information starting with your credit card number,<-- but seriously don't do that.

HerHighness · September 2014

I could tell you pregnancy horror stories and they had nothing to do with the sex being different. Pic is gone so i cant tell you my valuable expert opinion but i would trust the tech. They look at these things all day long. If the tech cant be sure then you'll have to wait for the next u/s. Even at 20 week anatomy scan there is a small chance they could be wrong. If its wrong it wouldn't be the end of the world.

jennjilljo · September 2014

I always thought that being told the wrong sex at the a/s would make a good anecdote for future conversation.

hwood10 · September 2014

When my mom was pregnant with me they swore I was a boy... Yea I came out 100% female Lol The only reason she was a tiny bit upset was because she had everything for a little boy. Luckily my aunt was prepared and brought a huge box full of pink and purple things. This was back in the 80's and I'm sure they have better equipment now but even if they say it's a boy and you have a girl everything will be okie dokie

sonora84 · September 2014

You guys suck! Give her a break...obviously some of you have nothing to do.

acpruchnik · September 2014

Am I the only one not seeing a picture at all?

mandamoochie · September 2014

Hkalevitch · September 2014

Seriously I get I made a mistake but I would never have thought that this reaction was needed. I understand finding out your boy is now a girl isn't a "horror story" but after 4 miscarriages anything in a pregnancy is scary to me. I was just looking for some other moms to be to calm me down in a moment of anxiety... But in reality you all just beat me up and didn't think about how you would feel if you were just asking for some help and instead got mean/rude answers. I get I made a mistake but this just wasn't needed.

thegoodpotato · September 2014

I couldn't resist.....

OP, I'm sorry you're offended by the responses, but if you have been around for a while, you KNOW that sex ultrasounds never go over well.

Instead of worrying about the sex, just be happy you saw a healthy baby on your A/S. If you truly have had 4 miscarriages, I'm sure that a healthy baby should be forefront in your mind, rather than having a bunch of strangers verify what you see between your baby's legs.

MommyOfAMiracle · September 2014

You have been participating on this board since July. It's crazy to me how surprised you are when it comes to the answers you've recieved. Snarky or not. If you've been paying any attention to what people post on these boards, and not just worried about YOUR posts, then you'd know that posts like these are slightly frowned upon and incredibly annoying.

I'm just going to chalk this up to you only post on here when you need help or have a question and pay no mind to other women who contribute to this board.

schnitz9 · September 2014

@hkalevitch I don't think anyone in here was "beating you up". You posted a pic with your personal details and people kindly pointed it out. Would have rather them say nothing and let internet creeps stalk you? Second you shouldn't be having any anxiety because the tech was 99% sure it was a boy. If that gives you anxiety I suggest you speak with your doc about that. Third you referred to techs guessing the wrong sex as "horror stories". As someone who has had loses yourself you can understand that the women on here where it took years to conceive or have lost children along the way would take offense to that.

@sonora84 before you start WK on your first fucking post maybe you should read the other hundreds of posts where we've all become supportive of each other through good times and bad. Many of us have been here since late may early june and for you to come blaring in here saying we suck for telling someone she has her full name and personal details on the internet for all to see just GTFO!!!

There's a Llama farm behind my house and I've become really close with the family. They let me name one of the babies this past spring and I named her drama. She is my own personal drama llama. It's epic!!!

Awe thanks Duck. Just for that I'll let you pet my llama. She's very sweet and likes to give me kisses all the time!

schnitz9 · September 2014

Not at all they don't make a peep. No smell ( there poop is like little deer pellets) and they are so sweet they kinda remind me of big dogs. Every time I go over there to visit they walk up to give me a kiss. Not going now since I'm pregnant a bit scare around them. But they couldn't be sweeter. It will so fun for our kids growing up.

Jomara23 · September 2014

I'm No Specialest But When My Mom Was Pregnant With Me They Were More Than Certain I Was A Boy, My Moms Gut Feeling Was So Good She Kept Insisting I Was A Girl, Right Before She Gave Birth They Did Another Ultrasound Nd Still Showed I Was A Boy. Once I Was Born... It's A Girl! Turns Out I Was A Really Fat Baby Nd That My Umbilical Cord Was Mistaken As A Penis. Then Once Again Maybe Technology Is A Million Times Better Now. Congrats Nd Good Luck. #IWasOnly8Pounds

Jomara23 · September 2014

4 Miscarriages??? Sweetie What They Post Should Not Make You Feel Any Type Of Way. If I Was You I Would Block It Out Nd Worry About My Baby's Health. You Shouldn't Be Stressing.

I think you really have to take these forums with a grain of salt, and I would certainly never let the comments here actually upset me or make me feel like shit. It's a bunch of random women on the internet, and a lot of them don't see kt be particularly friendly, smart, or helpful. If you are finding people's responses that upsetting: then you should be posting things and if an ultrasound tech said 99% then what good are the opinions
Of women who have absolutely no training in ultrasound?

You must be new here. You couldn't be more wrong. I suggest you read a litte more of the F15 threads to see how we really are. And to be completely honest, the women on this board are some of the smartest women I have had the pleasure of conversing with.

ETA: I just noticed your ONE post on this board was asking for advice, which you got. So in YOUR OWN THREAD I see friendly, smart and helpful answers.

You're ew.

If I were going to insult the intelligence of a large group of people, I'd make sure to get my grammar/spelling right. That's just me, I'm not very friendly, smart, or helpful though.

jennjilljo · September 2014

@bbillig‌, the women on this board are highly intelligent, fun loving, kind and helpful. They are just quick to point out when someone has obviously glazed over everything else for their personal purposes. We are a community, we discuss everything with each other. It's ridiculous for anyone to discount a trained professionals opinion and then ask people who are not trained in that profession to either back up or refute said professionals opinion.

Eta: I mentioned a thread that was unstickied so I removed that from the equation.
