gender of baby

I'm 26 weeks I'm worried my baby won't let the doctors see the gender when I go to my upcoming ultrasound appointment..  Ive had 4 ultrasounds and the baby still not letting the doctor see. Has this happened to you?? If so how far along were you until you knew the gender?

Ice cold water usually gets the baby moving also stop by the store abd get a Hershey bar and eat half 30 minutes before and bring the other half in to eat of he's not moving. Worked for my mom and my baby always moves when I drink ice cold things

I had orange juice before the ultrasound with my first and he showed us everything.   Lol.   Hoping in a few weeks this one is just as cooperative.   Good luck!

The clinic where I had all my scans done gave me lollies to get my son to move around when they needed him to. Luckily at the anatomy scan he had his legs wide open and could see everything, at my latest scan to check growth he was playing with himself lol
