disappointed

I am currently 16 wks I went for an ultrasound today and my baby refused to open its legs so I still don't know my baby's gender I am so ready to start buying things which is hard for me to do with an unknown gender.... Has this ever happened to anyone?

My 20 week ultrasound, baby had butt in pelvis and they couldn't tell. So disappointing! And then my 37 week one was still iffy! She IS girl though lol My mom couldn't tell with me at all because I stayed crossed. :\

I know its not healthy and I'm not a soda drinker but with my last pregnancy my cousin advised me to drink a mountain dew before my appointment and sure enough when I got there my baby was awake and active enough for me to find out. Not saying that u should do that but hey it worked for me!

I think I will go with the gender neutral clothes I get ultrasound frequently because my last child was born 2lbs 14oz hopefully I will see something next time... I will try rolling and jumping a few times next time thanks ladies

My 5 year old daughter flashed us that she is a girl but this baby we had 2 scans both 1 hour long trying to get all the measurements and still did not show us what gender it is. So it's a surprise now

Aww. My baby didn't want to open her legs either. I had to roll over a few times to get her moving. I mean her legs was crossed and tucked. Hopefully you can find out soon

Not to me but it took my sister 3 tries to find out she was having a girl. You can still buy things just gender neutral things. I started shopping at 9 weeks haha theres tons of things you can buy.
