    I tried to find out on U/S but legs were crossed. I had a girl

    Sounds like a definite girl majority! Wow! But of course, nothing is for sure. I just saw my midwife this afternoon, and she said she can't tell 100% for sure which way baby is lying, and if she still can't tell next visit, she'll send me for another ultrasound! I'm sooooo hoping this baby doesn't co-operate! I would love one more chance to tell.

    Legs in the way and baby wasn't keen to move in to a better position, but we didn't mind because we wanted a surprise. Boy!

    No idea yet this time, but baby was very active at the 12 week scan and I suspect will show us whether we want to know or not. I think it's a girl.

    I have 2 friends who tried to find out but baby refused to cooperate. Both women had multiple scans with no success and both women really wanted boys so their male partners would bond with the babies better (both first babies). Both ended up having girls.
    Another friend had lots of scans because baby was breech and was told the whole time she was having a girl. She announced it before baby shower and was showered in pink, but baby turned out to be a boy! Based on these experiences I have no desire to find out gender via ultrasound, I figure it's not worth the stress.
