Do you want me to guess the sex? 12 week scans.

I’ve found I’ve got a really good history of being correct at guessing the sex based on the 12 week scan. Whether that’s from an educated guess or plain luck. Having had 4 myself I know how exciting/intriguing it can be, whether you plan on finding out or not...

So I’m going to start a thread for people who want to post their scans and I’ll give it my best shot.

OF COURSE - I am not an expert and this is just for fun Smile

I’d love it - as I’m sure other ladies will looking back - if you could update once you know!

I've had this thread bookmarked for weeks and I've finally had my 12 week scan this morning!

Can you guess mine please? 😍

@Whilstwewait ah sorry about that. I’ve just looked back now and there was no clear nub and I wouldn’t like to take a guess unless I had something to base it on. Sorry again.

@Paperfox girl!

Thanks 😍😍

Do you use nub or skull theory - I can't even see a nub 😂

2Under22021 · 04/01/2021 14:34

@PowPurry I hope you're right.... I'll report back in 3 weeks. Thank you x

SamoyedFan123 · 04/01/2021 14:53

@PowPurry would you take a look at mine please (13+1)? It's a terrible photo as baby refused to cooperate so I'm not hopeful that you'll be able to see much though.

Ah thank you so much!! Do you use the skull ot nub theory? I had a feeling girl but no idea what I'm looking for 🙈

Ill report back in 2 weeks!

Thanks again x

@XmasBelle I feel overly invested in the thread too!! I’m so impressed by how many are correct! Congrats @PowPurry you’ve got skills!!

PowPurry · 04/01/2021 16:42

@SamoyedFan123 I’m wondering if that highlighted white but is the nub - if so I would say boy.

@Calmondeck thanks. It’s a combination really but more so the nub, yes. There is also another factor which is shown more in male foetuses. I have also got a few wrong, which is inevitable as again I’m not an expert. It depends on a lot of things - mainly the detail shown at the time the sonographer captures the photo. If what I am looking for is in said photos, I’m pretty confident in my guesses.

@PowPurry thanks - I wondered if it is the pointy white thing on the right but I'm clueless with this 😂

Thank you Smile I know what you mean! Hopefully I will remember to come back here in April to let you know whether your instinct was right or not.
I do have another 12 week scan photo but for some reason baby is flipped the other way!

imsxdes · 04/01/2021 18:48

I've got a better scan pic! Any guesses?

Hi there this is my 13 week scan it’s really tricky I can’t actually see a nub so I’m completely mystified what baby could be x

snapple21 · 05/01/2021 14:17

Would you mind having a go with my 20 week?
