Usually they are very accurate, as long as the baby is cooperating and is in a good enough position to visualize well enough. It all depends on how well the technician can see.

Yes, they are right most of the time. So it's not to common for them to be wrong and yes it depends on the visual they have. Sometimes the baby doesn't show well for most the pregnancy.

There is a small chance a sonogram is wrong at anytime in determining the sex of the baby, but it rarely happens. You are probably carrying a baby girl. The ultrasound tech. will usually not tell you the sex if they are not fairly certain.


What is the best occupation ultrasound tech nursing dental hygienist radiology tech or medical assisting?

well i went to school for dental hygiene and sonogram tech i like sonogram better because i don't like going inside people's mouth and being a sonogram tech is much more rewarding and interesting. It depends on you though if you're the type of person who gets grossed out by spit it's not a good job for you i know that sonogram tech makes more than radiology tech and medical assistant but i think maybe sonogram tech and a dental hygienist maybe make about the same amount but sonogram tech is somewhat similar to radiology. But for me i would prefer ultrasound tech it's the perfect career you will make good money and it's in high demand.

I am supposed to be 9 weeks preg and i went 4 my 1st ultrasound and the tech couldn't see the baby so could my dates b off because i never had cramps or bled so doubt i miscarried?

It is easy to be off on your dates. They shoudl do a blood test to see if your HCG levels are where they should be. I just went to the ER as I was bleeding lightly and they did this blood test and a sonogram and they matched up to be 5 weeks 4 days. All I saw was the sac but the Sonogram tech said everything looked normal and that they should hear a heartbeat within a week or so. Hope this helps. Good luck!
