Worried my gender scan was wrong

[kimbob89]

What are the chances of a 16 week gender scan being wrong? I've got my 20 week scan in two weeks so I'm hoping they will double check for me then, although sometimes they can be quite funny about checking if you've already had a private scan, and she's written in my notes that i had a 16 week bonding scan!

I thought I would update you..I've had my 20 week scan and the 16 week scan was correct baby is still a little girl.. plus they didnt even take my notes so they might not even see youve had a scan. HTH

You should be able to ask to reconfirm if baby is boy or girl.

with my son, I had a scan at 20 weeks. It wasn't hard to miss he was a boy, lol, plus honestly I didnt really need to be told as all gut feeling told me i was having a boy and first name I thought of was his.
I then had another scan around 40 weeks 5 days, mostly to make sure fluid levels were okay, and I didn't even ask, but the tech, reconfirmed that he was a boy. All I could think was, it'd be a bad time to tell me he's a girl when I've known for over 20 weeks it was a boy.
