I have a girl already and wanted a boy so I could be done having kids. Has anybody had the doctor be wrong about the sex?

Yes, they can be wrong, but quit complaining. Do you realize how many people can't have kids at all? Be glad with what you have! Just because you don't have one of each (aw, picture perfect) doesn't mean you can't stop at 2. My friend's mom had 5 girls before she got a boy, then had another girl after that.

The doctor could be wrong depending on the position the baby was in during the ultrasound. I wanted a boy so bad and I got a girl so I know how you feel. Just look at it this way, you still have a couple ultrasounds to go.

Ultrasound tests are never 100% accurate for identifying the sex, so of course they could be wrong. I wouldn't get your ups though and besides you know you will love and want your baby no matter what you have ( and I am not saying you wouldn't), but everything works out for a reason, at least that is what I believe.

Yes they could be wrong about the sex, although tests are getting better there can still be complications that would make them wrong. Sometimes the baby is in a bad position, or in my moms case, this was 30 years ago, the one girl turned out to be 2 boys. Crazy. but it still happens

Oh yea, it happens a lot. Sometimes boy parts of tucked away, or girl parts are swollen, looking like boy parts. :)
My friend was supposed to be a boy, and they didn't know otherwise until she came out a girl!
I would say, however, that the chances of the ultrasound being right are higher than it being wrong....

yes they are wrong sometimes but I doubt at 24 weeks there wrong ...
u are most likely having a girl
well u can stop having kids at any time
just cuz u have two girls doesnt mean u have to have a boy .... cuz there are no guarantee the next one will be a boy either :)
wishing u all the best though!

My doctor does not ever give 100% on a girl, he said ours was a girl and the next time it was a boy so.....They could be wrong but it shouldn't really matter what it is.

I have heard of them being wrong, however I am 31 weeks with my third girl and they haven't been wrong yet, I guess some of us weren't meant to have boys! Good luck! You will love them all no matter! I only wanted 2 a boy and girl, but oh well I guess 3 girls will be it!

I have heard of doctors saying it's a girl and being wrong, but not the other way around.

Most doctors won't tell you if they aren't sure however there is always that chance that they could be wrong, but it looks like it's probably going to be a girl. I wouldn't be disappointed, think of it as a blessing.
