16 week ultrasound

Well I convinced my dr to do an ultrasound today
.It's either a boy with tiny parts or a girl with big parts. Totally inconclusive. The baby cooperated just right, I don't think he/she ever even moved, just gave us a great shot of it's genitals. But we couldn't decide what those genitals were. It kind of looked like labia, but with a pretty big clitoris. So I guess I'll need to get another u/s next week and see. I told my doctor I needed a %, so he said 60% girl. But he wouldn't go higher than that. I'm glad at least that there is a higher % of girl than boy. But unfortunately, I going to have to muster up some more patience. What do you think it is?

I think GIRL! I never got a Dr. to say more than 80% chance that Sage was a girl. So, not getting a high percentage chance (in my experience) means that you'll end up with a girl. With Drew they (after my BIL Spencer told me differently) told me 100% boy. If they're not sure...it's a girl. At least I hope that's the case w/ you, as it was w/ mine. Can't wait to know forsure! If it's a girl...SHOWER time for you (since you have all the boy stuff)! I'll wait for you to have a girl... :)

I had an ultrasound at 15 weeks and it was very clear it was a boy and that is what i got, so because it's not obvious i think it's a girl!

Thanks guys! I've actually totally convinced myself this little one is a boy. I'm so neurotic, I think I'll need to go pay for an ultrasound asap!

I actually think girl! I couldn't wait myself, so I paid for a 4D U/S and they do early determination at 15 weeks - I was 16 wks at time of u/s...

I've had 4 girls so far. That looks like girl bum to me, but what do I know...I've never seen boy on an ultrasound! Good luck on getting your girl. I'm pregnant again and hoping for a boy, I think, this time. People say I might regret that. :)
