Am I doing this right? (Nub Theory)

Apologies, I know there are about a million of these posts and the only way to know is for me to be more patient and wait for my 20 week scan but if anyone wants to humour me and share the benefit of your wisdom it would be much appreciated.

I’ve been reading ‘in-gender’ and have marked on what I think are the base line and angle of nub, so if I’ve done it right (which I may not have) then the angle is in the inconclusive middle ground but closer to a girl (not sure if this really counts for anything). I have also included a copy of the unmarked scan so please tell me what you think and if my lines are in the right place.

For the record I am just curious to get an early clue but will be delighted with whichever gender I get.

I'm no expert but I thought that looked more like a boy nub. I'd try posting on in-gender as they are more clued up on the whole thing and you'd provably get decent replies.

Congratulations!

That to me also looks like a boy nub. If you haven't posted on in-gender definitely do. They was correct with my scan picture which was confirmed 2.5 weeks ago :)

Thanks for posting, as my guess is in the minority it seems I don’t have the hang of it.

Anna congratulations! What did you find out you were having?

I was definitely going to say girl. Smile Congratulations!

Forever - it's just the two of us and we could be wrong. Hang on in there until the scan.

Cannot see no obvious nub on your image to guess from naomi.
