How common is it to get baby's gender wrong?

[~Trish~]

I'm not sure, but I know boys are more obvious. They got it right with both my boys

I only know of 1 person who was told the wrong sex, she was told boy and it turned out to be a girl. Another girl i know was told by the sonographer that she was unable to determine sex, so went through her pregnancy not knowing.

Most sonographers won't tell you what it is 100% certain - cos there is always margin for error.

I know heaps of stories of babies coming out the other sex!!!

Most of the stories though - have been ones that they say are girls - turn out to be boys.. hardly ever the other way round - usually hard to miss a penis!!!

Just buy lots of white and yellow..lol

I know I'm carrying a boy because I saw his bits for myself lol

I have had 3 scans 1st said boy, 2nd couldn't determin and 3rd couldn't determin i have 1 more scan next week and will ask again!

I have had a couple of friends be told they were having a boy and it turned out a girl!

My boys were correct but there was no mistaking that they were boys at the u/s.

I`ve heard they can often make mistakes with girls and you end up with a boy.

With DS's ultrasound you couldnt miss that he was a boy. VERY obvious. DD's first scan told us it was a girl.. i so couldnt see it so had a 2nd scan. They also said she was a girl and showed me but still kinda hard to see.. so yeh boys are usually easy to spot.. girls not so.

They always knew straight away that mine were boys! But I know someone who was told the WHOLE time, throught 4 scans, that she was having a girl and she had a boy, who went home in pink to a pink room lol
