Nub theory?

Can anyone see a nub on my scan? Did me today at 13 weeks and 1 day Smile

I have 5 other children and the nub theory was right for them all Grin

I think I can see it and I think girl, but I'm no expert. My baba's nub is really borderline, so I really can't tell!

I think maybe boy, I can see what I think they call ‘stacking’.

Here a picture from google, it’s two small lines (the start of penis and testicles forming I assume). I’m not an expert, just been reading online to try and guess for my own scan!

Thanks @HopeNovember2017 - what makes you say girl (Sorry if it's obvious I've never done the nub thing before) x

See the little white luminous line (just at the bottom of the belly) if that is parallel to the spine then they say it's a girl, if it's more than 30 degree angle (if it was pointing more upwards) then they say boy! So if the theory is right then I'd say a girl :) xx

This was my 12 week scan, little girl. Not sure if it's helpful with looking at the nub!
