Same happened to me my daughter was so breech and had her legs squeezed tight together (which I'm glad she didn't want to flaunt the goods lol!) And when they tried turning or flipping her she just ballerina twirled or kicked the probe. I tried from 15-23 weeks and finally we saw she's a girl.

We see the doc every other weeks and in between we paid for 3/4d if u have the money I say do it. I'm betting girl though! Lol

I would reschedule and drink something cold and eat something sweet before you go in to help uncross the legs

my baby girl had her legs wide open, and my friends boy had his shut, whether the legs are open or shut doesn't mean anything, but I would say just get another normal ultrasound unless of course you want to pay extra, that's up to you, but the chances are you'll probably be able to find out the next go round
