Unfortunate mistake
My best friends step sister had her baby Yesterday. The sonographer
repeatedly told her throughout her pregnancy she was having a girl. Well She popped out a boy instead. I guess this can be honestly mistaken lol. I hope it doesn't happen to us. I go for my last full scan on the 17th of may so will get them to take the anatomy again just to make sure. Jennifer Ariana 8/17/03 Alexander via c-section June 1st |

That would be sooo disconcerting. Honestly, this was one of the reasons we didn't find out with DD1. Turns out we both really liked the surprise at the end, so we didn't find out with DD2 either. But, yeah, it sure would throw you for a loop! Did they have a boy name, or do they have to come up with one? Mary W. |

Jennifer Ariana 8/17/03 Alexander via c-section June 1st Wow. That would throw you, huh? From what I hear, though, these kinds of mistakes generally go one way - they might not see clear boy parts and thus they say "girl", but if they confidently tell you "boy", it's because they've definitely seen boy parts. I know what I saw at my own u/s, and if I have a girl I'll be tracking down that technician to ask just whose u/s she was showing us, since it wouldn't have been ours!! Good idea on getting them to check again at your next scan, though - here's hoping no surprises are coming your way! Melania Mom to Joffre (Jan 11, 2003) and #2 (edd May 21, 2005) |

Everyone knows the ultrasound can be iffy regarding the sex of the baby, so do people really go out and buy so many boy/girl things only that it *could* be disastrous? I did not know with all three of mine, and had neutral things in the beginning. (once the baby's born people seem to like to buy beautiful outfits for it) Marie |

My third baby had hydronephrosis diagnosed on ultrasound, and everything we read and were told claimed that it is mostly boys who have that problem. It was hard not to count on it being a boy, especially the way the specialist doing the second ultrasound kept going on and on about how it's mostly boys who have this problem, and then asking if we're sure we didn't want to know the sex. I think she was teasing us! It *was* a *girl*! lol Marie |

We found out this time (no I'm not saying) and anything new I've bought has all been gender neutral. All DD's newborn stuff is neutral too, since we didn't find out with her. Baby will be in our room for the first year anyway, so there was no decorating involved either. We do have a name picked but we also have an alternate name, just in case. |
