Correlation between nuchal measurament and gender?

Has anyone noted a correlation between nuchal measuraments and gender? Apparently studies have found that while boys can range in their nuchal measurements, they rarely see a female fetus measure over 2mm! So babies measuring over that tend to be male. For those of you with children, was it true for you? (My nuchal result was 1.2 at 12 + 5, so very low.... I wonder if I'm team pink? :))

2.1, 1.9 and 1.7. Girl, girl and boy respectively.

Interesting! Maybe this theory is now valid after all Blush

This is interesting! Is this only for babies without abnormalities I assume? I had a daughter with a measurement of 4.7mm but she was very poorly. Had the dating scan on Friday with my current pregnancy and a measurement of 1.3mm.

Just dropping by to say you mean sex, not gender. Good luck with you pregnancy!

My girl was 2.5, much higher than my boy who was 1 something.

I have a healthy daughter who's nuchal measurement was 3.6. My scan was done at 12+6 though.

My girl was 2.0 at exactly 12 weeks.
