17 week ultrasound

Hi girls! I had my 17 week u/s and the tech that did it was really rude! She was mad because she was called in from another office to cover for the tech because she was in car accident. . . all that aside I was very happy to see my baby!

The tech said she was 95% sure that it's a GIRL! She was laying sideways and asleep so we didn't get but a few bad shots in between the legs. My inlaws are coming up for Thanksgiving and they really want to know  what it is so they can shop before then so we are going in today with an outside company to do a gender check. They aren't satisfied with 95% sure.

I guess I just worry because she was alseep. I want to see her active today. I'm so excited to see her again!

Let me know what you think about the one shot we got from between the legs.

95% sounds pretty good to me!  I am so jealous!  Congrats!  I am 17 weeks but my gender scan isn't until a week from tomorrow =(  I am so excited and nervous because we will also get the results from the triple screen for down's etc.

Even with a 3d the won't beable to 100% say yes its a girl, the only way to know 100% is with an amnio. I think 95% is probably as good as an u/s tech can probably say. If your inlaws aren't satisified i hope they are paying for the gender check

I would go with the 95% I mean honestly can they ever be 100% with just a 3d? I'v heard lots of stories of 100% girl and it being boy! LOL IDK! I am still just waiting unpatiently at a hint of any gender sign! I'm not even quite15 weeks ....HO...HUM
