Welcome to healthcare magic.

The cardiac activity and weight are with in limits.
Echogenic foci in the left ventricle is a soft marker - when it is there the scanning doctor will look for any anomalies are there, Its not always compulsion to have the anomalies - its just possibilities.

If your 18 -22 weeks scan was done and everything was normal and a followup scan normal - nothing to worry.

And there is nothing that you heard about girl baby and so on - its common in both.

Suggest followup scan. good luck.

Any thing to ask do not hesitate.
