it’s not common for gender to be confirmed at a 12 week scan. 20 weeks is more accurate (although there are of course errors), I would assume it’s a girl. Symptoms don’t really make a difference

the midwife shouldn’t be saying either way at 12 weeks scan as they can’t tell until 16weeks the later scan should be more accurate xx

I don’t see how they could know at 12, I’ve never heard anyone had it even mentioned then. 20 is very accurate!

You could go for a private scan and get a gender scan It's what we did at 20 weeks said a girl then 26 weeks private scan also said a girl and we had a girl 👧

I would go with what they told you at the 20 week scan.

20 weeks seems more likely to be accurate
