Hi everyone!
Wondering if anyone has any ideas on whether I might be having a baby boy or girl?
Thanks in advance!

Yes, it’s definitely a baby.

GeorgieTheGorgeousGoat · 08/12/2021 11:00

You should probably have asked the sonographer, literally anyone else would be just a guess.

Some extra pics! X

Is this a joke?!

Iwantmorelindtlindorx · 08/12/2021 11:04

The sonographer won't tell you now at all.
You have to pay for a baby gender scan.
It's just a bit of fun, I know it's just guess work.
I've seen similar threads on here and people seem to make the right guesses regarding nub theory/skull size x

Sex.

@Mamamamasaurus

What does that mean? I should have said sex scan instead of gender....?

@Iwantmorelindtlindorx ignore them OP it's obviously just a bit of fun.. there was a massive thread on here a few months ago where someone said they were really good at guessing and guessed mine right! And so many people were posting their scan photos on there.. I wonder if it's still going?

Also it's obviously 'sex' but the actual scan places do advertise it as a 'gender scan'.. I had one at 16 weeks!

Do you have an inkling of what you might be having? I felt like I was having a boy right from the start and now he's 5 months old Smile

@stayignorant
Thank you for your message!
Yeah that sounds good, that was the kind of thread I was looking for but couldn't see anything today. I noticed people were guessing correctly with different theories! But of course it's a bit of fun! Maybe some people need a bit more in their own lives before they can recognize it Smile
I think I'm most probably having a boy.
I already have 2 little boys but every pregnancy has been very different!
I'm over the moon if the baby is healthy x

I'm going to guess girl although I'm often wrong!

LavenderAskew · 08/12/2021 13:07

Think you need a different angle to be able to figure out the sex.

Mind you I can hardly work out arms and legs on the scan so no help!! I'd make a better decision hanging a wedding ring above your bump. Though I've forgotten which way it's supposed to move to mean boy and which for a girl. So that's out too.

I'll go with boy.

Newbabynewhouse · 08/12/2021 14:19

I think boy...

Newbabynewhouse · 08/12/2021 14:23

Im going with boy cos i can see the nub is pointing upwards and they say it they point up its a boy and if they are straight/downwards from the soine then its a girl xx

cookielove · 08/12/2021 14:26

I think boy as the nub is up Smile

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 08/12/2021 14:27

Take no notice of the sarcasm. I'll guess a baby boy.
An old fashioned way to tell and I've never personally known it to be wrong.
Is the pendulum test. If it swings backwards and forwards its a girl
. If it moves circular it's a boy.

YuleHaveAWonderfulChristmas · 08/12/2021 14:31

Nub and skull - boy

miltonj · 08/12/2021 14:47

I think boy too! X

jessnoah · 08/12/2021 14:51

Looks like a boy to me from the skull- I had my third boy at the end of October. Also you don't need to caveat your post by saying that you want a healthy baby. There's nothing wrong with gender disappointment if you did have it and people seem to say that line in anticipation of nasty comments.

SapphosRock · 09/12/2021 12:58

Skull theory - absolutely a boy. Congratulations

JingleJingleAllTheWay · 09/12/2021 13:07

I'm thinking a boy too. Congratulations Flowers

bottleofbeer · 09/12/2021 15:25

Difficult! In one pic the nub looks like a girl and in the second it looks like a boy.

Helpful!

Iwantmorelindtlindorx · 09/12/2021 15:41

Thank you everyone for your responses!
General consensus seems to be a boy to join with my other 2! Grin
It's gonna be full on Grin
