has anyone in here had a ultra sound that
said it was a girl and turned out to be a
boy.
i just found out that it was a girl like a
few days ago and i kind of had a feeling
it was going to be a girl, i wanted a boy
but i knew it was going to be a girl.

ultrasounds can be wrong when determining
the sex of the baby.

My sister was told she was having a girl
and had a boy. This was a few years ago,
before technology got to be amazing. If
something gets in the way of the sound
waves mistakes happen. An amniocentisis
is accurate, but if there is no reason to
put yourself through it and risk your baby
I wouldn't go that route.

what about the 3d or 4d ultra sound, i'm
going to have that done when im 26weeks or
so and hopefully it will let us know for
sure if she is a girl or a boy but i will
be happy either way ! but i just dont want
to buy all the stuff and it turn out to be
a boy you know

did your doctor say that it was definitely
a girl? if they're unsure at all, they'll
usually say something like ".i'm about 70%
sure it's a girl." .or something along
those lines.

I also wanted a boy and it was so great
when I was told at 20 weeks that it was,
but then every single time after that it
was a girl! Well its still a girl and im
37 weeks now. At about 34 weeks the doctor
showed me in detail it looks like a
hamburger with the two buns and a
patty!!!!!

I had a 3'd ultrasound at 16 and a half
weeks and she told us it was a girl.. My
darling daughter was pretty spread eagle
but nevertheless I have an ultrasound with
my doctor on the 13th at 21 and a half
weeks and am thinking Im going to wait to
send out her baby shower invites until im
200% it's a girl...At the 3d 4d ultrasound
places they tell you to get a another
opinion just to be sure but it's pretty
dang acurate..Hard to hide stuff when your
getting that good of a look.. But i'll
keep you updated.. Im pretty sure its a
girl but we see again here in a week or
two.

A 4d is so worth the money.. It is
honestly like the coolest thing ever to
see... They recommend to do it at 29 weeks
or more..
As far as babyshowers.. Im having mine in
May when im 31 weeks..For a few reasons..
My best friend and sister are able to
travel to california to be there for it, I
will still have pleantly of time to get
all the things that I dont get from the
shower that i still need, and i'll still
be cute pregnant and not big as a house
yet lol..want to look all cute in the
pictures...vain yes, but at least i admit
it.

you're not throwing yourself a shower, are
you? that's incredibly tacky.
they suggest doing the 4d after 29 weeks
or so because before that the baby still
looks kind of like an alien. if you don't
want to waste your money you should wait
until after then.

Dont worry about it.. My sister and mom
are throwing mine and the dates are kind
of out of my hands but I had to give them
a guest list with addresses and I got to
pick out what date was convenient to me
(well dates out of about a 2 week span)..
It Worked out better for everyone that
way.
And hey if you dont have someone who is
kind enough to throw you one then why not
do it for yourself?
.. Your celebrating a life I wouldnt think
anything of it if I went to one where
someone threw it themselves.

traditionally, you aren't supposed to
throw yourself a shower, & your mother
or sisters aren't supposed to throw one
for you, either. it's viewed as kind of
tacky.. my aunts threw mine for me. but to
each their own.
