So for starters twins are very common on my mothers side of the family. I am pregnant currently w/ my second child and started showing at 2-3 weeks pregnant. I joked oh it mite be twins. I couldn't make it to the dr.'s until week 15 and the dr. confirmed one baby with the normal ultrasound not the vaginal, I was too far along for that.

I went for my 20 week sonogram at 19 weeks. Of course I found out the sex 5 different times from three different technicians. It didn't dawn on me until I went home and reviewed the scenario in my head.

My lower abdomen was a girl with the three lines that was confirmed 3 different times
But in between and at the last take I was informed differently.
In my middle stomach when on my side it was a boy with his but in the air and is legs wide open.
Then the last sonogram by chance because they missed a measurement was a boy but noticable the ambilicle chord was seperate from the penis and scrotum.
I tried to tell one of my dr.'s bc I have two after the sonograms but she wouldnt believe enough to double check.
But I have to go back now in a few wks the 23rd to verify the gestational week, although all the numbers added up when i was looking at the screen that shows the weeks.
I'm going batty's I want to know for damn certain?
Would anybody else find that reasonable cause enough. I know what the female parts look like being I have a three year old so been their AND i saw seperate boy n girl parts.

What did you find out on the 23rd? Sounds like you could very well have a reason to be frustrated that the doctor didn't feel like taking a second look right away.
