Was this a a gender slip up ?

Went yesterday for a scan at the hospital currently 13 weeks the lady who was scanning me said “ he’s kicking around a lot “ 10 seconds after I clicked on to what she said I said “he?” She replied “he/she is kicking around sorry “ do you think she accidentally told me I was having a boy or was it just a natural term maybe she has a little boy happy with whatever I have although I have a £100 gender scan in 2 weeks time 😂😂

Probably not. Most professionals call baby’s he/she without knowing for sure. It becomes habit. 13 weeks is too early for them to sure of gender

This happened to me where the lady kept saying 'she' then when baby was born it was a boy haha so i think they just refer to them as she or he sometimes when its too early to tell x

Not necessarily! My midwife always referred to the baba as a “she” during every appointment so far and warned us she genders them to a girl automatically, but I’m having a little boy.

I don’t think so. I had a CTG last week and the nurse constantly called baby she and she’d not even seen a scan. I think some of them just have a gender they use without even thinking. 13 weeks is too early to know for sure.

it means nothing, my sonographer kept saying she but i’m having a boy 😅

She probably had a boy on the previous lady she scanned more than likely or even had more boys that day or like you say she may have a boy at home. 13weeks is too early to tell xx

Too early for gender at 13 weeks, most sonographers don’t like say ‘it’ so they say he/she but doesn’t mean gender

I asked a sonographer this and she said she tends to use whatever the previous scan had been because she would never refer to a baby as ‘it’. She said she tried using ‘they’ first but a couple freaked out when they thought she was saying it was twins 🙈

They said he at mine too but we had a girl!

13 weeks is way too early to see what gender
