Nub theory guesses?!

Hi!
I know it's so impatient but I'm so excited to know the sex, what do people think based on the nub theory? This was my scan today at 11+5 😊

I am not a nub theory expert at all but going by skull, looks like my little boy.
Congratulations either way, are you going to find out early or wait? 😊

Byets · 11/01/2020 20:13

@SparkleUK aww how far along are you or is he here now? I am deffo going to find out I don't have the will power to wait!! 🙈

He isn't here yet, feels like I've been pregnant forever! I'm 34+3 😊

How exciting for you! I found out at 16 weeks too and then he flashed the NHS sonographer so she could confirm it for me haha

I think little boy too!

Squiggleness · 11/01/2020 20:17

I think a girl definitely from the nub

Jojo19834 · 11/01/2020 20:19

Can someone explain how it works? Or simply why you think what you do as I don’t get it! Am following to see if there is a consensus :-)

Byets · 11/01/2020 20:19

@SparkleUK oh bet you're getting so impatient now! I wish I was that far along! I hope the last few weeks goes quickly for you!! Haha no mistaking he is a boy then 🤣 I plan to find out at 16 weeks too 😊

@DandyLyon thanks!! I'm secretly hoping someone might say girl as I would love a little girl but I'm just so glad whatever that he/she is healthy 😊

Definitely boy the nub is sticking up too much for girls x

Byets · 11/01/2020 20:21

Thank you, I break up from work next week so that might help make things easier!

I hope they're well behaved and let you find out and you have a lovely pregnancy 😊

The nub looks girly at the moment but 11+5 is too early for the nub theory so it could still change.

Sydneyy · 11/01/2020 20:32

I vote girl 💕

Puppyandbaby · 11/01/2020 20:40

I think girl! Nub seems to be pointing downward compared to the spine angle.

Byets · 11/01/2020 20:57

Thanks everyone!! So exciting!

It's not the easiest one to tell or I may have tired eyes but I'd say girl

aNonnyMouse1511 · 11/01/2020 21:07

I am a nub expert and that’s a girl. Forked and in line with the spine.

However at 11+5, it has time to rise so could still be a boy.

Byets · 11/01/2020 21:20

@aNonnyMouse1511 thanks for replying!! Could you tell me how far along the nub theory will be more reliable? As I have another scan on the 21st which will make me 13+1 😊

13+1 is reliable but you may not see a nub if the scan isn’t as clear x
