We had an ultra sound done at 18 weeks and 5 days and the tech. said that she thinks we're having a boy .. then he got in another position and she said, yes, it's a boy. She said she was 99.9% sure.
I saw what she pointed out as the penis .. and my husband said he saw the two white dots that were supposed to be testicles. Well, all this time I've been thinking its a boy (I even felt that BEFORE the ultrasound).
But, I am now 24 weeks and we are buying the clothes, the crib, the bedding, the dressor, we have the name .. and scheduling my baby shower and I'm worried that maybe that .01% chance it's not a boy!! it might be a girl.
eeek!
is it normal to start second guessing when you start buying clothes and planning the shower?
If she said it was a penis and two testicles @ 99.9% sure .. should I just go with it?
at 18 weeks and 5 days its a pretty clear shot, right???
thanks!! :)

I would go with a neutral bedroom theme. And don't wash any clothes yet or takes the tags off. Buy a few gender-neutral newborn clothes which will get you through after the baby is born. Once you've got the baby in your arms and know the gender, you can wash all those cute little clothes.

When I was in the hospital giving birth to my first child, I met a woman who was proudly walking with her 1 day old daughter, dressed all in blue. Apparantly the ultrasound technician was 99.9% positive that the baby was a boy, so mom bought only boy clothing and supplies. OOPS!
Bottom line- nothing is guaranteed. Buy some neutral clothing as well, just in case!
