My unborn child never seems to open up its legs to determine what sex it is, what can I do to make the baby wake up?

Drink some orange juice prior to the ultrasound -

no amount of orange juice or liquid can make that happen...he/she either WILL or won't. Just (if you've got the money for it ) get as many ultrasounds as possible until you've gotten it. OR get an amneocentesus (long needle that goes into the belly, they take amneo fluid that will determine if the baby is a boy or girl, also can find out if there's any deformaties, or diseases, or if there's anything wrong with your baby.. it's not cheap, and it's painful as hell to get it done)

caffeine or sugar usually makes babies wiggle around quite a bit. Unfortunately the sound waves that are made by an ultrasound machine often make babies curl up and cover their head. My friend didn't find out what she was having until her little girl was born.. some kids just don't cooperate. Good luck!

lol you cant, trust me...I had so many ultrasounds trying to find the sex of my Baby, I was told to drink orange juice, didnt work. I was told to eat chocolate to make baby Hyper, didnt work either, old wives tales claim that if Baby doesnt open legs most likely its a girl. My Baby didnt want to open her legs and when she finally did it was just a quick peek good enough to confirm IT'S A GIRL!

I have gotten about 5 ultrasounds so far in my pregnancy this time. What I do that has worked everytime is I get a 32 ounce sweet ice tea and drink it. Make sure you finish it 30-45 minutes before your ultrasound. I am having a girl, confirmed many many times! lol

My daughter didn't want to open her legs at first when we had our u/s. The nurse pushed gently on my stomach and got her to move around and she eventually showed us her stuff! My son, however, wasn't shy at all. He showed his right off the bat! LOL. I've also heard that drinking a glass of milk before the u/s helps. Hope the baby doesn't disappoint you!

I think if they're going to give you the money shot they're going to give it to you. I don't believe there's really much you can do.
You could probaby drink a whole bunch of caffiene but that's not good for the baby. Sounds like you may have to wait for the big day to be suprised. Sorry.
Good luck!

All my cousins swear by mountain dew and a bag of M&Ms right before the ultrasound. I never tried it, didn't want to know. But that is what they all did and it worked. Good Luck
