Got my private gender scan tomorrow! Soo excited! Anyone had this and baby just isn’t playing ball so they can’t tell the sex?

Yeah sometimes they send you for a walk, my tip have a sugary drink and chocolate bar before it wakes baby up 😊

We had a private scan yesterday and it was the best think ever! We saw our baby girl yarning 😍 so cute

They recommend getting as hydrated as possible leading up to it to help the fluid around clear a little. So make sure you hydrate well today too!
I’ve got mine next week and im so excited. So much so that I pulled it forward by three days because I couldn’t wait x

It’s ours too!
With my first I had to have a cold sugary drink and do a couple of laps around the estate to get her in the right position - I have no doubt this baby will be the same 😂

For these scans is it a full bladder ladies? X

on my email confirmation it said I didn’t need a full bladder x

mine says full bladder. Each place is different though

Ahh mine is tomorrow too 🥰🥰 xx

I didn’t have a gender scan but just a private scan at 16 weeks and she said if we wanted to (which we don’t) she couldn’t tell cause of position if baby. Haha but I beleive fizzy pop can help xx

I went for mine today and baby started in the correct position and then moved! The lady was very persistent though and asked me to do a couple of movements and asked me to lay on my side to get baby moving, there are things they can try before advising another scan don’t worry! ☺️

did you find out in the end? xx

yeah I had to do some wiggling and then he stood up! She also pressed on my tummy around him to encourage him to move and I know of people who have gone out for a walk and when they’ve come back baby has been in the right position ☺️ try not to worry too much, have something sweet before you go in so baby has lots of energy! Xx

A trick I was taught is to not sit down when you get there keep moving around as that will keep baby moving! Also drink a cold drink 10-20 minutes before the scan😊 I did these and got the gender straight away!x

My scan was today and the baby was hyper, they were able to get a picture though

Yes 🙌🏻 we went on Saturday and baby was sat as a Buddha with its bottom down and they said I could come back today for a free rescan for gender . And luckily baby had turned after much effect of walking, poking, star jumps , ice water etc and
I’m having a Girl !!!
