Nub theory - I know I'm being unreasonable

Hi all, I feel v lucky to be able to have my two children however I'm going through my 2nd pregnancy plagued with hyperemisis yet again.
I cannot get my head around nub theory, I think due to just being so bloody sick but please can anyone tell me from this 12 week scan boy or girl? Genuinely happy with either but I'm just inpatient. Thank you in advance

TBH I don’t think this even shows the area needed? I used a load of nub theories when pregnant, all said little girl. I’m currently cuddling my sleeping 7 month old little boy 🤣

Fun to guess, but nothing else. Do you know the placenta position? Slightly more accurate IMO. Book a proper scan at 16 weeks if you’re desperate to know though.

Girl.

Thank you @Mamaofaboy - probably why I'm getting confused.
We have a boy too, so in a way set up for boys so woukd be easier but then I guess a girl would be nice too for different reasons.
Thank you for your response @scorpiogirly Smile

Do you know if placenta is anterior or posterior @Jamesolo1 ?

Wishing you well for the pregnancy and hope the sickness subsides soon x

I think girl

sarahc336 · 23/01/2022 13:40

I'd bet money that's a girl xx

I think 💙

I know someone who was told they were having a girl right up to birth - they have a boy.

The nub hasn't been imaged, I don't think.

There are shed loads of Facebook groups for this, BTW.

Don't see a nub. Generally speaking if the leg is show as well as it is then the nub is often not visible.

I am a sonographer. You can’t tell the sex from this picture. Nub hasn’t been imaged.
