Nub theory - the techs say girl but others say boy?!

I’m really confused. I’ve come to accept (and want!) a boy and a couple of people who’ve looked at my scan said boy, but I submitted my pic to nub techs who say girl?! Any thoughts based on my pic?

Sorry I have no idea from looking at scan as I’m hopeless but just wanted to say I also did the nub techs with mine and they told me 95% it’s a boy but when I had my gender scan and also my 20 week scan it is in fact a little girl 💗 so I wouldn’t take what the nub techs say to be honest good luck

Is that the only scan photo you have?

I'd guess girl; the nub seems flat; but I can see where the confusion comes in, as there looks like stacking. I think it's actually the cord, but it's not 100%. My money would be on girl; though!

It looks like a boy to me but I'm not an expert

SeeminglyOblivious · 15/01/2022 17:26

Based on my very vague understanding of the nub stuff I'd say girl.

GoodnightGrandma · 15/01/2022 17:27

Girl

Cotswoldmama · 15/01/2022 17:28

Using skull theory I would say girl

theremustonlybeone · 15/01/2022 17:29

looks like a boy to me but if you another scan photo it would help

TeamBlondie · 15/01/2022 17:30

I’d say a girl but it’s not the best picture.

DefyingSanity · 18/01/2022 09:24

I'd say girl. You can have girl nubs that are stacked and the examples they have on the internet look just like this. The nub is also point down which indicates girl.

Did you find out at your 20 week scan what you're having? All my nub/ skull theories point to boy, not sure whether we will find out or not, however I've convinced myself it's a bit now

Ah, seen your update!

Poppypip1 · 13/03/2022 12:31

Congratulations on your girl x

LCT14 · 12/01/2023 17:32

So you have a picture of your scan ? I’ve been told boy by a lady on nub group , but sonographer told me she has given me a pic with no nub shown 🤦🏼‍♀️

LCT14 · 12/01/2023 17:32

Meant to say Do **

Danii2023 · 13/08/2023 16:38

Nub theory if anyone can help 😬 I’ve become obsessed with googling and trying to work this out for myself, but I honestly have no idea what I am looking at 🤣
