Nub theory- nonsense?!

Very unreasonable of me to post in AIBU for traffic.

I’d never heard of the nub theory when I was pregnant with my first. Now I’m pregnant with my second, in my impatience, I’m interested!

I know it’s probably nonsense and just for fun. What are your predictions based on this pic?! Can you even see the nub on it, I’m so clueless 😂

I can’t remember it now, if it’s up or down for a boy/girl, but it was accurate in all 3 of my pregnancies.

As was the (I think) Chinese one which predicts from month (I think) of conception. Sorry, that’s so vague, I’m still incredibly hungover.

Chinese gender chart! I’ve just googled. Month of conception and your age at conception. I was very bored once and did it for eveyone I know (well, the ones who would humour me) and it was accurate.

Oo that’s interesting thank you- I’m getting straight on it!

I’m a Sonographer and personally think the nub theory is rubbish. You’ve got a 50/50 chance of being right…
This pic doesn’t show the nub anyway
