Hi,
You are 20 wks pregnant and I went through the complete scan Report. Everything is normal as per the last line of the scan report (Features suggest single live intrauterine fetus presently in changing lie of approx 20 wks 4 dys gestational age). You are also aware of this. Actually you must be happy.
Don't you know revealing sex of the child is great punishable offence. So as per Law no doctor will r eveal the sex of the child in the scan report and even if you ask orally. I understand that every pregnant woman will be excited to know the sex of the child
A child is the greatest Gift God has given to you. Don't separate them by sex.
A wish you safe delivery and happy life.
Best wishes

Hi

Thanks for your query.

From this report it cannot be guessed whether the baby is a boy or girl. To know that you will need a repeat ultrasound scan and request your doctor specifically about it.

Also check the laws in your country, as in some countries it is illegal to try to find the gender of the baby before it is born.

Take care
