i didnt suggest you have an anmio, they are not something you "just have".  

amnios are needed at times, and if you have a health issue they are definatly something to consider, not for a gender test.

i didnt know 100% with my first and it was so much fun to not know!

amnio's are dangerous and should not be given really! In my opinion. I have heard of to many woman loosing their babies are rupturing their water from it. Some on here matter of fact. They were devistated!

Yeah I ahve heard of wrong us too! Nothing is 100% but if you get a really good shot with a good tech they should right.

my ex sil was told a girl thoughout her pg.  she had complications so she had u/s often.  she had a name, a gown all girly to bring her home in and a nursery that was more girl than boy but sort of gender neutral.  well its a good thing because he was a boy!! lol didnt even realize it till he was a few min old.

id think they would be able to tell more clearly if its a boy than a girl.  the only way to know 100% is amnio.

They are as accurate as they can be. THey ahve been wrong but most likely if they got a clear shot they are right! The later you are the harder it can be and the earlier I think.

They told me a boy at 15 weeks and I get another one on Monday at 21 weeks 5 days. It was plain it is a boy but I still wonder if she was right or not too!
