What is a nub? How does it indicate gender?

The nub is the genital bump in early development ... and gender can be determined by the angle of the dangle ... Google nub theory :)

Id say girl, but im not sure it is a nub and if it is I may add I had my scan at bang on 12wks and nub was flat but I read it can still rise at that point, and its more accurate at 13wk. Sure enough my flat nub is my 4th boy :)

Mumof3- I said I wasn't finding out but dh really wants to! I like this nub thing as it's not really finding out iykwim?
Sonography r had a brill shot of the nub on another picture, but printed this instead. I was just so relieved that baby was ok etc that I forgot to ask for the other pic aswell!

General rule for the nub :

Inline with Spine ... team pink
Angle to the Dangle ... team blue

It definitely shows better after 13 weeks though I had great pic of my twelve week and was right ... tho our 8 yr old witching told us we were having a baby and it will be a girl 3 WEEKS BEFORE our bfp lol ... gender scan at 16 weeks confirmed, and a double checked at 24 wk 4d scan :)

I was going for boy actually because of the skull shape (I'm always wrong though!).
