Hello ladies I had an ultrasound at 13 weeks and 3 days and everything looks perfect with baby! I asked the lady if she'd be willing to take a potty shot for me so I'd have something to obess over the next couple of weeks until I can find out the gender of baby. She's like sure! So I got a couple of shots and she also mentioned that baby appears to look like a BOY! Yay! Right?! But the pictures she gave me I have a hard time seeing boy parts I need to ladies to help me determine if you see any?? Thank in advance! Also I don't see the classic 3 lines that you would with a girl I'm so confused!

FYI that these types of posts are just not generally done and historically this kind of thing does not get a great response. I mean, that's supposed to be a straight shot of your kid's <i>genitals</i> on the internet??? <img src="https://us.v-cdn.net/5020794/uploads/editor/nk/ersxfwl138v2.gif" alt=""> I don't get why someone would want to do that. But GL.
@kaitieb14. Usually on TB it means, "Quoted for Posterity," in case the original poster gets offended and tries to delete it... but I like your answer, too! Seems like a doctor would be much better qualified to answer this type of question than a room full of internet strangers! ;)

Yes ok I understand that. Did you have to be rude about it??? It doesn't bug me with your response but to other people would and have been really bugged by it. I'm just saying.
Well, some might say it's rude to barge into an established community without reading the guidelines, introducing yourself, or getting to know the board culture even a <i>little bit</i> before posting. Admittedly, I DON'T EVEN GO HERE and I know this *kind of shh doesn't fly. So you know. Different ways of looking at it.
Please forgive me if I missed your intro and all your active board participation tho, cos like I said. I was just lurking and I saw this so I thought I'd help you out. ;)
Well I'll say this you were not helpful at all actually caused more grief to me. There's different ways to go about things which I feel you didn't handle properly. This community is about helping Right? More feels like you were putting me down more then anything. Thanks again I will not be coming back to ask help or question from you.
....and this is stupid. We aren't here to help you with your AW asking to guess the gender of your baby. We have an ultrasound thread for pictures of our adorable blobs. We have not caused you grief by not being able to read the ultrasound, you're 13 weeks, you'll get to wait like the rest of us. No need to come back if you're not going to introduce yourself or participate in the community aside from fulfilling your own AW needs.
Why should we be expected help you anyway if you don't give a damn to get to know the group? We told you we can't and it's not appropriate to post those kind of things here. Seems to me like you caused yourself your own grief. Hun. <img src="https://us.v-cdn.net/5020794/uploads/editor/eb/czhgffg369f6.gif" alt="">

@BusinessWife I have to admit I lurk TTGP a lot, you all are hilarious, fierce and inspiring Best of luck to you on your journey, and we will hopefully see you graduate to the June BMB, they will be lucky to have you!!!
I'll never understand posting your child's genitals for all the internet to guess or why people assume just because we've had babies/are currently having babies that we can read an ultrasound better than the professional in the same room as you.
Am I the only one super geeked out by the phrase "potty shot"
This is pretty close to the actual face I made when I read that.
Too embarrassed to use anatomical terms, but not embarrassed to post a pitcure of genitals on a forum. Perfect combo.
I felt the same way as you're intending, but I actually use "geeked out" as really excited (usually about something nerdy). So that's a fun little internet culture difference @BayCamp
But yeah the whole thing is creepy and what creeps my out even more is wondering if this is literally just a troll who stole someone's genitalia ultrasound. Ick

also it's way too early to be able to tell. Outer genitalia still isn't fully formed at this point.
