What did your anatomy scan show? Did you ask them to double check for boy parts? If a tech mistakes the umbilical cord for a penis then they aren't good at their job at all. Did you get confirmation of the sex? Enjoy your baby :)

Oh and its more common to mistake a boy for a girl that early due to swelling or the cord x

Well when i was pregnant with my first at 16 19 and 28 weeks i was told boy but when i actually gave birth i had a little girl much to my surprise if they wasnt sure at the scan it would be best to get a second opinion specially if you are not happy they was not sure hope for all the best :) and congratulations

I wouldn't have thought they would be wrong as they don't usually say unless the a sure. I was gutted when I found out I ws having a girl I wanted a second boy. It took me like a good three weeks to accept the fact it's not going to happen. But she is healthy and that's the most important thing. If you search into google gender disappointment they are a few good websites that will help you feel better. I'm sorry you didn't get what you wanted. And I hope you feel better about it soon :)
