Hello, my apology, I'm Chinese, and English is my third language.

I'm in my early 30s, and a FTM. I'm due February 2018.
I'm 20 weeks, my anatomy scan is scheduled on October 6th (where I will be 21 weeks), it just 1 week away, but but seem like I just can't wait. I'm anxious. sigh..

Below here is a pic of my 12 weeks ultrasound scan (and the only pic that show the nub).. I know the nub theory in order for it to be accurately reading, the baby has to lay flat on it's back, and has dead straight spine. I know curled spine does effect the angle of the nub.
My baby was very playful, keep moving and kicking and stomping. He/she just won't cooperate, let alone lay flat on it's back.

As can see from the pic below (12 weeks ultrasound); my baby just won't lay flat, curled spine, butt and belly up, legs curled up and his/her thighs in the way cover the nub. So I don't know how accurate or how much can the nub be read.
But if you can help me guess please? (nub theory, or skull theory).
Thank you very very much for your help.

oh, and if the skull theory, it says boy for me.. Because based on the skull theory: Square forehead means boy. And round forehead means girl.
My baby sure have a square forehead. :-)

Sorry, I omit out the top, due to it had my first name and last name, birthdate, and OB/GYN place, etc... so I prefer omit it out.

eta: Sorry, I don't know how to get the photo to show up. But here is the direct link to the pic (where I upload it into a free image hosting site, like photobucket). If you click on it, it will take you directly to see the pic: image.ibb.co/ff5HZQ/12weeksultrasound_nub03.png
