~* Anatomy Scan Results *~ (Post yours here!!!)

carolyngrace · January 2015

Hey ladies! Yesterday was crazy so I didn't get a chance to start this thread.

The short version is: It's a BOY!

The long version is: The anatomy scan was really cool. Great to see baby for the first time! I thought the technician would let us know if everything was healthy, but apparently you have to wait until your doctor/midwife gets the results and goes over them with you. We were both expecting/wanting a girl, so when she showed us the shot of baby's legs and penis I just kind of said "Oh my goodness...." and looked at DH. We both have lots of boy nephews and were hoping to bring a girl into the mix, but nope! We called family soon after, which helped get us excited (nephews were thrilled to have another boy).

So, ladies, how was your scan? Share anything you like about it here!

@carolyngrace‌ I was watching for this yesterday and was getting nervous since you didn't post! I am so glad it was a great experience! Congrats on a sweet baby boy!

I have to wait until February too! Ugh so far away lol the 2nd of next month can't come soon enough

staceyfern · January 2015

I cannot wait for mine! Made my appt for it earlier this week and they offered for me to come in for it next week. It was so hard to do, but I chose to wait another week so that my stepson could go with us. I started looking at furniture and checking out the baby sections in stores to see what we will need and that makes it so much harder!!

@Davila21 aren't you due the 13th? How did you have your Anatomy Scan already? (They're typically done between 18-20 weeks)

Typically, yes. But at my OB, if you have an appointment around 16 weeks they will try it and I also have another one at 20 weeks just to make sure they weren't mistaken.

dasheydog · January 2015

Sadly I have till Feb 3rd but the good news is that my doctor does my scan so I can find out right away if all is looking good

What they'll try at 16 weeks is to determine the sex. The anatomy scan actually isn't solely to determine the sex, but to actually make sure there are no visible issues and that the baby is developing properly. They'll do your actual anatomy scan at 20 weeks like you said, and probably confirm the sex for you again. But that scan will be a little longer and more detailed.

Exactly.

My OB explained all of this to me, I was just sharing a photo from my last one.

aj1327 · January 2015

Congrats! My scan won't be until the end of January or beginning of February...I can't wait!

Jessica16393 · January 2015

My a/s is on the 7th and I'll be a couple days shy of 18 wks but after reading team green post I have 5 days to convince SO to wait..I changed my mind about finding out.
