Nub theory guesses

Hi, had our 12 weeks scan today, dates as 13weeks 1 day.
Have a good idea of nub theory and have my own guess but wanted to see what others opinions are.

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

I'd say girl! Congratulations OP!

I’m thinking girl too.

DressingGown87 · 15/05/2020 20:13

I would also say a girl! Congratulations

I’m 21+6 weeks and looking at my 12 week scan, everyone thought I was having a boy. I’ve had three sonographers tell me I’m having a girl.

@BeingATwatItsABingThing, interesting! Have you got a pic of your 12 week scan?

BeingATwatItsABingThing · 16/05/2020 14:51

Here is my 12 week scan. Based on nub theory, everyone thought boy. I posted a thread on here and it was a unanimous vote for boy. I had a private scan at 16 weeks that said girl and then two sonographers (student and fully trained) said girl at my 20 week scan.

BeingATwatItsABingThing · 16/05/2020 14:52

It seems like the picture didn’t post.

BeingATwatItsABingThing · 16/05/2020 14:52

And now I can see it did!

MoreCookiesPlease · 16/05/2020 15:15

I would have said girl for you, @Being. The nub is compared to the spine at that level... and it looks like it's parallel! Although that may just be the retroscope....
What did you have incidentally?!

Sorry @BeingATwatItsABingThing I just re read and you haven't had the baby yet .

I posted a thread and it was unanimously boy. I have a Facebook group of people all due in September and they all said boy too. 🤷‍♀️

I really hope it’s a girl now though because that’s what I am preparing for.

How does the nub theory work? Can anyone take a guess on mine?
