Hi everyone !

I’m new to the board- due in April with my first! Feeling rough and sick every morning but starting to feel energy climbing back (at 13 weeks today!)

Went for our scan yesterday - any ideas about gender?? I’m very impatient! :D

Thanks in advance !! :D

Sex not gender.

I think any old wives tales about guessing sex are rubbish. Sorry! Hopefully you will find out at next scan.

@NicoAndTheNiners - new to the board, and the first response she gets is your miserable one. Did you misunderstand what she was asking with gender? No. You didn't. There's no need to pedantic.

RaaRaa88 · 17/10/2018 12:28

Ooo yep meant sex sorry!

I’ve been reading about this nub theory and some people seem to be pretty good at it on here... :D

I flipping knew the first response would be someone throwing out the old 'sex not gender'.

Hmm

Sorry for the misery guts on here op! Congrats Smile

NicoAndTheNiners · 17/10/2018 12:31

Oh and you two had far more constructive comments yourselves. Not.

At least I answered the OP's question. Misery guts yourselves!

RaaRaa88 · 17/10/2018 12:33

Don't worry @RaaRaa88 - OP just means original poster, which is you 
And someone on these threads always comes out with the good old 'sex not gender line', don't worry about it!
I'm rubbish at guessing (I was convinced throughout my whole pregnancy I was having a boy and then my DD turned up ) but I hope you have a healthy pregnancy.

LetsHaveAnotherGo · 17/10/2018 12:50

Also I did have some smiley faces in my last comment, but they've disappeared! :)

Razzle88 · 17/10/2018 12:52

Thanks!! :D very exciting.
I’m in to old wives tales so fascinated to hear more from people that know!
Xx

OneForTheRoadThen · 17/10/2018 12:56

No one on here can tell unfortunately. Why don't you get a gender (😆) scan at 16 weeks? I did and it was accurate x

mellongoose · 17/10/2018 13:01

I hope you get more responses OP since most of the ones so far are grumpy!!

I'm rubbish at these, but I'm going to guess girl.

To the others, if you don't want to join in just don't click on the thread. I feel sorry for this new poster!!!

Lilbear14 · 17/10/2018 16:03

I can't not ask, I need educating...can someone explain why saying gender instead of sex is an apparent issue?

I've been saying gender not sex for years.

OP I'm rubbish at this but boy came into my head straight away but I have absolutely no experience in guessing genders...or sex... whichever

TokenGinger · 17/10/2018 16:22

@Lilbear14 Sex is your biological sex, so for most of us on here, we are female. However, your gender is your role, ie what you identify as, so you may have a female who wishes to identify as a man.

Lilbear14 · 17/10/2018 16:32

@TokenGinger
Thank you, learn something new every day. I always thought it was really the same thing, just two different words for it.

MoanasPig · 17/10/2018 16:35

Hi Poster

Based on the nub theory I would lean towards a little boy!

If people do not this kind of thread. Don't bloody click on it!! Keep scrolling

TokenGinger · 17/10/2018 16:38

@Lilbear14 Me too! I didn't realise it was such a big issue until I came on to these boards

Kate123cl · 17/10/2018 16:42

I would probably lean more towards a boy Smile

babystripes · 17/10/2018 23:28

I'm gonna say boy op! Oh and as for smartie pants with the sex not gender comment if you book a private scan to find out it's a gender scan not a sex scan... people can choose to refer to it what ever way they like... the world is literally nuts at the minute people have to be careful with everything they say because there's idiots at the ready to nit pick 😂
