Skull theory....?!

Hi all,

Just came home from my scan 13+5 and while everything looks healthy I now have the agonising wait for the combined screening to come back... Anyway any thoughts on the sex of baby? I have a very stubborn baby on my hands who didn't turn around during the scan Grin

Thanks

I'm going with boy based on the eye ridges!

p.s. I just went for my NT test too today (had dating scan a couple of weeks ago). Also in the same boat waiting for the bloods to come back... pfffffff! Confused

I'm a week behind you cupcake! December 06th.... fingers and toes crossed. My NT was 2.7 and within normal range, but it doesn't stop me from being paranoid! Roll on the blood results....

Skull theory is not reliable... my sister is an osteo-archaeologist and says it's impossible to tell the sex of any skeleton pre-puberty. So not possible to tell from the skull on a scan.. sorry!

But I guess it's quite fun to give it a go. Just don't decorate the nursery based on skull theory!

Haha thanks, I won't be buying anything at all until August so i have a while to find out.
To be fair I don't mind or care if it's a boy girl orange or blue as long as they are healthy was just for a bit of fun Grin
I think I was a bit worried earlier as the baby wouldn't move but then I realised both the mother and father are equally as stubborn!
