Had a check-up by my gynae today. Both my gynae and I were equally surprised on the 'change' in the baby's gender. Both of us saw the little dicky bird at 14 weeks. As for me, I was more worried than being disappointed that it's not a boy. I was worried that my Amnio result could have been switched!! My gynae did another thorough scan and this time, he was quite certain that he saw a female genital. I'm actually relieved that it's indeed a girl and not a boy. If the little dicky bird can still be seen, the Amnio result could have really been switched and I may have to do another Amnio. My gynae explained that at 14 weeks, it is often still too early to determine the gender as the baby's genital is still forming and changing; mistaken gender like my case is very common.
The right kidney still looked dilated but since the baby's chromosomes are normal, close monitoring is required. I'm scheduled to see the fetal specialist, Dr Patrick again and see what he has to advise. Meanwhile, I can only pray that all goes well with this baby and my pregnancy.

my friend was expectin a girl all through her pregnancy, and she gave birth to a boy. with that many ultrasounds she had, she and her hubby was shocked to see a baby boy. well, because they bought everythin pink!
health of the baby is all that matters, you'll be fine. rest well.
why do you have to see the fetal specialist again?
My gynea was mistaken initially too. When we told the news, my in laws jumped for joy. A month later, our gynea told us maybe a girl. So, i am sure u can imagine the look on the inlaws' faces..hehhe...to me, doesn't matter if the baby is a girl or a boy, most importantly, she/he is healthy.
just relax and enjoy the pregnancy, everything will be fine.
