Boy or girl ?

Question

So it's been confirmed by ultrasound that I'm having a baby boy. She had at first said it was going to be a girl then when baby finally opened its legs she realized it's a boy. I'm just concerned because everyone... I mean everyone except my mother in law still says they think it's going to be a girl. They say it's because of my belly size or things like that. It might be a Mexican culture thing to believe that.

But since they always tell me that in the back of my mind I just hope we don't get everything boy related and then do end up having a girl. Hopefully that makes sense since my thoughts are all over the place.

Thank you for listening!

Answer

I think they it is really really hard to mistake a boy for a girl. It's pretty hard for a girl to look like it has a penis. It's more common for a boy to be mistaken for a girl because it can hide lol

Answer

I would absolutely trust the US over old wives tales.

Answer

They can actually mistake the labia for a penis. Happened with my 3rd. The Dr said boy. Looked like a boy to everyone. She was all girl. Not that it's common. But it can happen.

Answer

20% of girls turn out to be boys, if they can't see clearly the first time around.

I doubt the tech mistook a penis for something else. If they said boy, it's a boy

Answer

Post a pic of yur ultrasound if yu don't mind so we can see

Answer

My family told me that too when I was pregnant with son almost 4 years ago, but he is definitely a boy.

Answer

They said girl first for me too and two weeks later they said boy. He definitely looks all boy from the ultrasound pictures, but I'm still nervous about it... I wish they could check again but I don't have another ultrasound until I'm around 34 weeks! By then I'll have all boy stuff ready to go lol so I know how you feel!

Answer

If there's a little wee, it's a little boy. :).

Answer

That's kinda nuts. Cause this is my 5th and it's completely different then my boys! But it took the tech 45 mins to tell me it's a girl and the two ultrasound I had after that the techs wouldn't even look for me cause baby is always in a difficult spot! So I have gotten a few things. Clothes, bottles and a small bed but waiting for rest. Cause I am scared. Lol... only the essentials I guess you can say. Lol...

Answer

Will you be having another ultrasound before delivering? If so just keep the tags on everything so you can exchange items. Or buy things that are gender neutral for your big purchases.
