I went in for my ultrasound today, and the baby had its legs crossed, so we couldnt see the sex. Any tips on how to make the baby open its legs or move around so we can find out?

lol no sorry. My little sis did this to my step mum and they couldnt find out the sex cause every scan she went to my sis was crossing her legs.
Maybe try some orange juice before you go in next time, it should make your little one wriggle around so you might be able to see. I was lucky with my scan my little boy was going nut's and moving all over the place so the sonographer managed to get a good pic of his bit's lol. Best of luck, hopefully next time you will see the sex. Congrats!!

I don't know if there's really anything you can do. The same thing happened with me; my baby's legs were crossed so the ultrasound tech had to call in a doctor who had to call in a second doctor cause they couldn't see the sex or the face. Then she (they eventually gave me an 80% chance that it's a girl) randomly flipped over on her own. I think it was all the poking going on though; she didn't like it much. But in the end it's probably up to the baby; it'll move if it wants to.

Someone once told me to drink a soda with caffeine. I didn't do it and had to wait until 7 months to find out the sex. My daughter is now 2 1/2 years old and still stubborn.

MANY DOCTORS AND ULTRASOUND PHYSICIANS HAVE FOUND THAT WHEN A WOMAN DRINKS FRUIT JUICE 20 MINS. OR SO BEFORE AN ULTRASOUND IT TENDS TO INDUCE MOVEMENT OF THE BABY. IT WORKED VERY WELL FOR ME AND MY WIFE. THEY WERE SPOT ON WITH PREDICTING MY TWO CHILDREN'S SEX.

when i had a scan with my first the woman who was doing it told us youcan tell the babies sex by looking at the scan picture.
Rounded pregnant looking belly on the baby means its a boy
flattish belly on the baby means its a girl.
We have tested her theory out on all our friends and families scan pics and so far it hasnt been wrong.

i don't think you can do anything to order your baby to uncross his/her legs, just take the ultrasound again after 3 months

Well, it looks like the baby's already doing the opposite of what you want him/her to do.... you're just going to have to wait it out. Good luck!
