I have never been pregnant (and I am not now) so this might be a dumb question. But, I was just curious as to what happens when you DON'T want to know the sex of the baby at your 'big' ultrasound?

Do you see what is happening up on a screen? Or do they show you pictures? Is there a way to block out 'down there' or would they just not show the lower region? Do they tell you to turn around? I am just curious, as I fear I'd be able to tell whether it was a boy or girl on my own. I have done a an online boy or girl ultrasound quiz and I done pretty well.

Did anyone know the sex before the ultrasound technician/nurse/doctor told them based on what they saw on the screen?
 
Im not really sure if they dont go to that "region" if you arent wanting to know,lol but i know that i saw i was having a little boy plain and clear before she even told me, it was in plain sight lol.
 
They ask you if you want to know... Those sonograms are so eleborate you have to be PRETTY knowledgable to be able to read one of those untrained and tell the sex of the baby... if you don't want to know, you don't have to look at the screen. Just get the printouts of the shots the sonographer gives you that aren't of the babies "down there" parts... or for us grownups, the penis or vagina...
 
its too hard to tell what your baby is from ultrasound unless you know what you are looking for, they will stay away from babies area if you tell them you dont want to know!
 
Alot of times it's difficult for the untrained eye to determine the sex through an ultrasound picture. Of course, the best thing to do is to tell the doctor or US tech that you don't want to know and they should stay away from that private area!
 
you should tell your doctor before you go that you dont want to know the sex of the baby.
