Ladies, who among you has had an ultrasound recently? Did they also charge you for telling you the baby's gender? My sister went the other day, and they told her she had to buy an ultrasound photo from them before they could tell her the gender or show her 🤔 It seems like they used to tell you the gender automatically if they could see it, but now it's "pay first." It's not a huge amount of money, but it feels a bit strange.
Врач поставила мне ЖДА, но не выписала препараты, а просто сказала «поднимайте питанием». 😐 Я поним…

The ЖК (women's clinic) said it was free at the perinatal center, and the paid clinic also said no extra charge.

The funniest thing is when you pay, find out the gender, and then at the next ultrasound, it suddenly changes 🥲

I didn't phrase the question very well. It's a regular perinatal center, not a private clinic, but they didn't tell her the baby's sex. They said this service is only available if you buy photos 😐

At our perinatal center, this is a paid service. They told us this at the first screening, but then the ultrasound technician allowed me to come in for an unscheduled visit to confirm the gender for free.

Free ultrasounds don't usually provide photos, but they might tell you the baby's sex. It really depends on how "customer-oriented" the ultrasound technician is. With my first child, they told me without any issues, but this time I went for a free scan and the technician was completely silent the whole time.

I got the gender and sex for free in the ultrasound photo. I didn't know it could cost money.
Maybe the gender reveal party is paid?

Both paid and free options were mentioned. The paid option also included 3D photos and videos. Maybe it depends on the price.

The first screening was always paid, the second was free.

Never paid to find out the gender. Always said that.

They always said that, without any payment. And if it doesn't turn out that way, will they give the money back?

They talked about it for free and paid, but they asked: "Should we tell you the gender?"
With my son, at 16 weeks, they told us at the PCR test, for free)

Well, in the free ones then yes, you pay separately. Although it depends where

Barkova Lena No, it was a regular second trimester screening. The ultrasound was free, but they asked for extra payment to determine the baby's sex. Like, if you want a photo, we'll tell you the sex, otherwise, we won't 😐

Well, for a photo, I get it—you pay. But what about finding out the baby's gender? They're looking anyway and seeing it. Some people just say right away, 'It's a girl!' or 'Look at that little boy!' But here, it seems like if you don't pay, you won't know. That makes no sense to me 😄

yuliya I'm curious too!) What if they tell you the wrong gender, then what? 🥲 What guarantees are there? It feels like paying to go see a fortune teller.
