First trimester scan today, all is good and healthy!! I thought I spotted a very clear ‘fork’ in the scan, but they printed off loads of photos and some look ‘boy’ and some look ‘girl’! What is your guess? Gender scan booked for 2 weeks time so will update! ✨

I don't know what nub even means!

Squirrelblanket · 04/10/2022 19:56

You are being unreasonable. Post this stuff in the correct forum.

I don't know what nub even means!

It’s sort of an old wives tale with some truth in it, that you can see the sex of the baby in the 12 week scan because of the ‘nub’ (the bit where the genitals would be). Some people are really good at guessing!

It wasn't a thing when I had my children @Cuppasoupmonster

SherbetDips · 04/10/2022 19:58

Why are you posting scan pics of your child in the internet and asking them to look at the genitals? Bit weird imo.. sorry

@FamilyTreeBuilder don't be such a misery. You know you don't have to comment, right?

I'm useless at this sort of thing OP but many congratulations! I hope you're pregnancy goes smoothly and your little one arrives safely, boy or girl! ❤️

You might think they're a misery but they're right

MN has sections for a reason.

And I clicked on the thread because I wondered what the nub was

Cuppasoupmonster · 04/10/2022 20:05

And now you know @LoveLarry

What has being GC got to do with nub theory?
Because why does it matter what sex your baby is?! If it’s a boy are you going to immediately paint the nursery blue and go out and buy digger toys?! But don’t worry, I know it’s all “just for fun!!!!!!!!”
Congratulations on your pregnancy, it’s nice that you are so excited. It’s just that obsessing about its sex seems unhealthy IMO (and yes, deliberately posting on a high traffic forum for theories based on an old wives tale weeks before a sonographer can even tell what the sex definitely counts as “obsessing”)

I think HQ are enjoying this bun fight 😂
Have reported it along with many others a while ago but they still haven't moved it to the pregnancy topic 😂

Worthyornot · 04/10/2022 18:51

Some mean responses, it seems op didn't know about the pregnancy section. Anyway I think boy op.

Well she seems to have found Style and Beauty, Women's Rights and Baby Names previously.

RIPQueen · 04/10/2022 20:46

What is GC

MrsLargeEmbodied · 04/10/2022 20:48

@RIPQueen

urban dictionary is good cunt
could be wrong though

MrsLargeEmbodied · 04/10/2022 20:48

just realised @RIPQueen
it oculd be gender critical?

MrsLargeEmbodied · 04/10/2022 20:49

or even Gay Couple?

EyjafjallajöKullStrikesAgain · 04/10/2022 21:42

That’s a boy, 100%. God knows why you’re getting upbraided OP. Mumsnet is so cheerless at times. Literally why are you attacking her for nothing at all?

Wishing you a happy healthy pregnancy!

Thought we could post anywhere we wanted?

SlashBeef · 05/10/2022 09:21

Christ, with all the pregnancy related topic boards you could pick why would you choose AIBU?
Some posters don't want pregnancy related shite lurking everywhere.
It's a boy or a girl. Good luck.

MistyGreenAndBlue · 05/10/2022 10:56

It's whatever it decides to be when it's old enough to tell you.

Dont you know ANYTHING?

Mumsnet is soooooo Transphobic. Gah!
