I was told the wrong gender on my scans. It completely messed with our heads. We were told we were having a girl and the midwife didn’t even check when I gave birth. So we were handed our ‘girl’, had that special moment, named her, and then realised later it was a boy. I’ll never find out the gender again. My baby is 6 months old now and even though I love him more than words can say, I still miss my daughter that I thought I’d given birth to
Exact same happened to me although my midwife said as soon as I gave birth said what did you say you were having. Totally agree with how your feeling my second boy is 7 months old now.I adore him and very grateful he is healthy and happy. I always say it’s like I’m thinking about a baby girl that never existed strange feeling x
I have the exact same feeling. We didn't officially find out gender but at the scans "he" was mentioned twice and we thought we could see two white orbs in that general region. I had convinced myself we were having a little boy. For 24hrs after she came out I thought the same - they come out all swollen down there so easy to mistake 😅 and she looked like both our dad's. My mum even commented on the first photo "oh what a lovely pink hat you have David" (my dad's name and also the name we would have given her had she been a boy). When I eventually got home from hospital five days later to lots of pink balloons etc it did start to sink in. However what I would say is even though you have a child of a certain gender - it doesn't mean they will behave stereotypically like that gender at all 😆 my 10 month old daughter laughs when she farts and loves to be thrown around the room 🙈🙈🙈 if you stick a headband on her she just pulls it right off again 😄 I love her as she is (even though she's nothing like I ever expected! 😵💫) I think its pretty normal to feel a bit disconnected at first when they don't turn out to be what you envisioned. Sending lots of hugs your way.
@@pollydavidson7337 Its strange isn’t it. It’s like we’re grieving, but we’re grieving for babies that didn’t exist. But then we feel like we knew them and we carried them for 9 months. Iv found that most people who know what happened to me find it funny. I’m not happy it happened to you, but it’s nice to talk to someone who understands 😊
@@LPLP5yeh that’s exactly it you plan all these things in your head with your daughter. Yeh everyone did with us I was like it’s not funny tho 🤷♀️. We just have to think it’s a story to tell them when they are older. Strangely it happened to my Mum with me she thought she was having a boy🤦🏼♀️karma. I think if we ever have another I wouldn’t want to know the gender xx
@@pollydavidson7337 Iv just found out I’m pregnant with baby no. 2 and we’re definitely not finding out the gender. There’s no point as they clearly get it wrong a lot. And I don’t want it to mess with my head again. I also think it’ll be nice to have that surprise on the day
I was convinced the whole way through my Pregnancy that I was having a Boy, even though after every Scan we had they said she was a Girl, even our Private Gender Scan and she said she was 99.9% sure and I still wasn't convinced 😂 she did come out a Girl but you hear of people getting the Gender wrong. Looking forward to the video, whether they are a Boy or a Girl, they are going to be so loved and George is going to be the Best Big Brother 🥰❤️ xx
Congratulations 🥳 I have a boy and a girl and both times I knew what I was having before they told me! I would find myself always looking at clothes and nursery ideas for that gender during each pregnancy x
Congratulations lovely 💗I was told I was having a girl at my 20 week scan. I already have a boy who is 4 so bought everything girly and room pink etc. Had four more scans afterwards referring to baby as a she etc. Not once picked up and boom I gave birth to another boy it was such a shock. I obviously love him more than anything but I don’t think I will ever forget my midwives face. When she said what did you say you were having again 😂😂 xx
I love this 🥰 congrats! I've just had my 20 wk scan 2 weeks ago and we found out we are having a baby boy! We have a girl who's 2 on Sunday, and I was so shocked, I just didn't think I'd be lucky enough to have both and couldn't picture me as a boy mama either 😂 so exciting isn't it xx
Hi! I really like your videos being 11 weeks pregnant I would love to see an updated version of your baby essential for 2023.. with brands and suggestions. Thanks
The same thing happened to me. I did the test between 6 and 7 weeks, and at the time, I didn’t really know how common it was to get an incorrect reading. There’s only 1 male who lives with me, and that’s my kids’ dad, and he wasn’t even home when I did the test. It came back as a boy, and I really wanted another girl, so I believed the test because I just felt like it was probably gonna be a boy, and I kind of just said to my partner “what if it is a girl at the ultrasound?”, jokingly because I felt like the test was right as I’d handled the disappointment already. I’ve had my time with my daughter, and now it was time for me to experience a boy. I was disappointed initially and then we settled on a name and I got more excited as time went on. Until my 20 week scan where they told me it was another girl and I was so shocked I actually said “you’re joking” to the sonographer, and cried. I’ve had several growth scans since that have all confirmed girl. She’s not here yet so I’m yet to receive a refund for the test, but I agree with what you’re saying. Don’t waste your money, it’s not worth it. Yeah, you get the money back at the end, but then you’re spending maybe 12-14 weeks completely unsure. You had a gender test and you still don’t know what it is. It caused a lot of stress
I’ve read that if the blood test result says girl, it’s definitely right, as it means there is only female dna in your bloodstream. If it says boy, there’s a chance it can be wrong as it could be contaminated by a boy (e.g. your partner or son or pet). Anyway, such exciting news! Congratulations! X
Congratulations to your beautiful family, Shan, ash, George and baby 💗🤍 tears came to my eyes, Im so happy for you. Sending lots and lots of love xxxxx
I really really pray I get that excitement of having a girl, I have 3 boys and currently pregnant with our 4th and final baby and I'm so hoping this is our girl and I get to experience a daughter, obviously I will love a boy the same and healthy baby is the most important thing but I'd just love to experience a girl, all the girly things and the mother daughter relationship. You are very lucky. Congratulations 🎊
I was team girl from day1, and I am just so excited and happy for you all because now you are a beautiful family of 4, and you have a beautiful son and daughter and I just am so emotionally happy for you all ❤️💙 Congratulations guys 🎉🎉🎉
Congrats! Amazing news! My 20 weeks scan isn’t before 22th March - can’t wait! Could you please tell me the brands of the leggings you are wearing? My jeans stopped fitting and I can’t find anything decent…
So happy for you 🥰 I’m due my second in a few weeks (a boy), my little girl will be 21 months. So excited someone else is having 1 of each… I feel like everyone else online and in my real life, has either 2 boys or 2 girls! Xx
I was told when I did sneak peak that its more likely to have a false boy prediction as you can accidentally contaminate if you have other males in the house
Congratulations!! I had a feeling you were having a girl based on a few of the old wives tales that were true for me I.e. craving sweets and horrendous morning sickness. Girls names ended up more difficult for us because there were so many choices! Thrilled to see your family grow
haha, yeah I also wouldn't read too much into old wives tales, because I had horrendous all day sickness for 7 months (4weeks-8months), but I had a boy 😅💕
Congratulations to you and your family! A GIRL!!!!🥳🥳🥳so happy for you! Name suggestion if you're struggling - Emmeline, when I came across this name I loved how unusual it was and the famous Emmeline was a leader of suffragettes (girl power!), so we named our daughter that, and nickname is cute too- Emme :)
Sneak peaks if they come back as girl are always correct but if they come back as boy they can be incorrect. It can pick up one single male piece of dna (other child, or animal, or hubby) - crazy! Also sneak peak will reimburse you if wrong xxx
Congratulations!!! So so happy for you and your family ❤️ P.s. Please stop clamping your ends with the straightener when you’re curling it though! Making me, as a hairdresser, cringe for your ends 😂🤦🏼♀️ instead you can cup the curl with your hand to set it xx
Can you up get your money back for wrong results with sneak peek? I’ve just sent mine off and since sending mine off, all I’ve seen is negative reviews and wrong genders etc. but I’m sure I read on their website that you get your money back if it’s wrong? X
I disagree, it was wrong with me 😩 I was told we was having a girl and then found out we was actually having a boy! Sneak peek was also wrong as well for me. Said I was having a boy for my first and 20 week scan showed a little girl. Maybe I was just getting punished for having the impatient trait 😂 x
We had the same. We was told with sneak peek that we was having a boy and at our 20 week scan we found out we was actually having a girl. Then I had the ramzey theory, nub theory what ever you want to call it, done with our second and that said we was having a girl and we was actually having a boy! I suppose it’s a lesson learned to anyone who’s impatient 😂. Congratulations on having a girl, they’re so cool ❤
Yay congrats my second is a girl due on 10/6/23 , we already have a 2 year old boy so one of each is so exciting and we were told exact same thing a boy then had a shock a few weeks ago and told GIRL!!🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤
I don't think mother's intuition is a thing, I think it's just guesswork with a 50% chance of being right 😅 I guessed boy with my first and was wrong. Guessing girl with my second as the pregnancy seems identical in terms of sickness but who knows? 🙃 congrats on your exciting news!!
