They will tell you when to look away if you tell them you’re not finding out

Just tell the tech you dont wannaknow, mine will turn off the screen do we can't see

The ultrasound tech should ask if you want to know before they reveal it! Just let them know you want it to be a surprise and they’ll tell you when to look away

You can tell them you don’t wanna know and they will make sure you only see an angle you can’t tell if it’s a boy or a girl at

we were asked at the beginning of the appointment, and we were told when to turn away. we even thought we'd spoiled it for ourselves but we were wrong when we found out later lol! you won't spoil it for yourselves, they'll tell you how to avoid it. they even had us look away at one point just in case while they were checking something totally different.

We didn’t find out for our son, we had very regular scans to measure his growth and the sonographer always avoided the area… once we went and both hubby and I said did you see a scrotum 🙈😂
