Hi,

Has anyone experience this before? All the old folks hav been telling me I'm expecting a boy cuz my belly shape is "sharp" and belly button is protruded.

How true are these myths? I'm actually 34th week now and this is my first. I don't mind having a boy or girl, just that I heard before scannings might not be 100% accurate. I practically bought everything in pink! Maybe I should ask the gynae to scan again the next visit..

Does anyone come across this before? :tlaugh:

for me, i'll choose to believe what's in the scan (esp the detailed scan) then those myth..

ya scan might not be 100% accurate but it's much more accurate than myth..

So, trust ur gynae, trust ur scan!!! =D

Hi. Not all the old wife's tales are correct. 90% said my baby is girl even though I have already scan and confirm is boy.

Haha. Funny thing is when baby is born, I asked my hubby "confirm with boy hor??"

Well, my baby's head has been facing downwards all the time (no need to turn at all), so my tummy shape is quite different from others. Look long rather than big or round.

Hi all, I've a logic from my neighbour's relative who is a gynae, to noe if it is a boy or gal is your first ultrasound scan, if your sac is the long type, the bb will be a boy, if the sac is round, the bb is a gal.

Before my gynae told me my bb is a boy, my neighbour already told me is a boy from my first scan picture. Can anyone tell me is this logic true, pls take a look at yr first ultrasound scan and let me noe.

I dunno whether what u heard is true but it seems quite true on me. cause my sac is long like cucumber shape and on the 3mth gynae said most likely is boy and detailed scan also show that I'm carrying a boy.

so far the sharp or round thingy is >80% accurate... ...at least for me n my peers those of us have boy have sharp/pointer tummy!

The high or low tummy is not accurate lah, all my preganacies r low lying... ...
