Ramzi theory, boy or girl?

Hi girls,

This is my cousins scan at 9 weeks. According to ramzi is it boy or girl?

Abdominal scan.

I think they say to the right means boy and to the left mean girls but that this would be opposite. I think it has to be done very early in pregnancy and it also says if it is ultrasound it is mirrored so it would be opposite and transvaginal its not. That's what i read. Mine at 5 weeks transvaginal was on the left, hope that means girl. And, on 6 week it is in the middle, and on the 8 week it is in the middle. I think 9 weeks is too late for this theory. I will have a ultrasound too tomorrow, I am curious where the baby will be.

n early scans, 6-8 weeks, the fetal pole is still very small and very closely attached to the future location of the placenta - so, while we can't actually see the placenta without color doppler, we can guess that the cord is attached where the placenta will be.� This is the chorionic villi.
) Ultrasound equipment allows the user to switch the view from transverse (left to right) to sagittal (up and down) and from left to right and vice versa.� In a dating scan, there is no need to flip the image and usually we can assume that the left side of your printed image is the right side of your body - but it's best to ask when your scan is being done.� Otherwise, all bets are off.� If it is flipped, the prediction will be opposite.� The sonographer can flip the image for both a transvaginal scan or a abdominal scan.� For some medical scans, the image is flipped to follow a medical convention - for instance, fetal head to the left, etc - to help the doctor orientate themself when looking at the scan. Since this is usually not indicated on the scan itself, just ask the technician or better yet, have them label your image.

Thanks for your reply. Do really she would of needed to ask what side the placenta is on as the image could be flipped?

If it's an ultrasound on her tummy then it is flipped.
I asked my dr where placenta was but he thought I was nuts think I am to early. Hoping I'll find out more tomorrow from my Ob.

My dr said at 8 weeks and 4 days he can't tell me were the placenta is yet so who knows.
