Nub theory...I can't seem to see the nub though!

Hi all

Had my first scan today, I'm 13 weeks exactly :)

I've heard of this nub theory and know its not proven to be accurate or anything, but wondered if anyone had any guesses? Only problem is I can't seem to make out the nub!

One of the guys at work thinks girl as his little girls scan looked exactly the same!

Any other guesses please?

Thank you :)

I can see it in the second picture, it's a little horizontal white line jutting out where the leg meets the body.

Ideally though, the baby needs to be lying flat rather than with a curved spine, as it affects the angle of the nub. I'm not really sure if you can tell either way from that photo.

Yea in the second picture you can see a faint straight line, and if it is parallel to the spine it is an indicator that it is a girl! That is my guess :D

Thanks Diving, don't think I've got any of baby lying flat so will just wait very very patiently till the 20 week scan :)

It’s hard to tell because the baby isn’t lying flat to see the nub. But I’m curious. Do let me know any guesses you get because I have a similar scan

Twoinapod · 04/03/2023 13:43

@Row19 all of your personal information is visible in that photo, you may want to report to nn and have it taken down

Nub theory

I paid to get my picture looked at for the nub theory, they couldn't detect a nub so sent my money back.
Just wanted your thoughts.
