Question: Finding out the gender
Did baby cooperate the first time?

Re: Question: Finding out the gender
When we went one baby cooperated and one baby didnt. We went back two weeks later and the other one cooperated.

Re: Question: Finding out the gender
He didn't want to cooperate but thank goodness we had a patient tech.
After trying to get him to move the tech made me go to the bathroom and pee. Although I didn't have much to go it seemed to do the trick and we were able to get a good enough shot to know there was a penis there
I did what others suggested and drank a tall glass of OJ.....didn't do a thing.
But, I am convinced I have the laziest child known to man Hopefully that will be a good thing when he comes out and will be an easy baby! Although I suppose it could go the opposite way too.

Re: Question: Finding out the gender
Nope - and she didn't cooperate TWICE!!
I was determined to find out the gender the firs time b/c I was going to register with my Mom. I was so upset when I didn't find out. I was convinced I would find out for the next appointment..... that didn't happen either

Re: Question: Finding out the gender
With DC#1, he did not cooperate so we had to go back to get better pics of the 4 chambers of the heart. (Although mind you, we didn't want to know the gender, so I don't know if the tech was able to see that or not)
With DC#2, I had no problems (and we did find out the gender with her).

Re: Question: Finding out the gender
She cooperated nicely spreading 'em wide at the sonogram at which we had the amnio. DH is hoping she keeps her legs closed from here on in as he is having one heck of a time getting a carry permit for a shotgun.

Re: Question: Finding out the gender
Totally cooperated. So much so that as soon as the tech turned on the sono machine, she yelled out "Whoa, it's a boy!"

Re: Question: Finding out the gender
Nope not on the 1st one and not on the 2nd one either really. On our 2nd sono (at 22 weeks) the tech guessed, but we ended up paying for a 3D/4D sono a couple of weeks later to confirm.

Re: Question: Finding out the gender
My cooperated where the tech could see, but she wouldn't sit still enough to get a picture to "prove" it . That was at 21 weeks.
We had to go for another U/S the next week because her acrobatics also kept them from getting clear pictures of her heart. When we were back, they peeked again and were certain it was a and printed a picture that time.

Re: Question: Finding out the gender
Yes, thankfully, she did. I drank OJ and had some M&M's about an hour before the appt. to make sure she was active and ready to reveal herself
Good luck!

My son was very proud to show off his goods, he spread his legs and bam! Every sono after that he made sure we got a glimpse of the jewels.

Re: Question: Finding out the gender
Yep, both cooperated. If the baby isn't moving around enough -cough a few times and that helps to make them move .
ETA: I had another sonogram today and sure enough, he showed his goods again, spread eagle!!

Re: Question: Finding out the gender
when i went for my amnio, she wouldnt cooperate during the sono, so they couldnt tell us if it was a boy or girl. we found out like 10 days later when we got our amnio results.
