Cord or nub?

I’m sure the sonographer said this is the cord when we were at the scan but when I’ve posted this on a nub theory page everyone said it’s the nub and it’s boy. (No preference of gender) just wanted to see what you guys think?

I'd say that's the cord.

IF it's the nub its very straight, and bearing in mind the baby is in a curled up position, if they were to lay more horizontal I think it would be more likely straighten out to be representative of a girl. Certainly looks like my little one (due in a few week's!)

I thought so too. It doesn’t look like the typical nub. The skull I would say was boy from what I’ve read even though it’s not that accurate. Thanks for commenting!

I think you’re right ya know. That’s a good way to put it. I really thought it was a boy but now you say it it is very straight. But I’m kinda thinking it’s the cord. there wasn’t really an obvious nub when I was looking at the scan so I then thought girl because boys tend to show off more 😂 thanks for commenting. X

I feel it’s a little too high for a nub as well?

This is another image. No nub visable?

Do you have a photo of your little one at this gestation? Everyone is saying boy. Which I’m so happy about. As I have no preference x

I'd say girl by that picture

That’s what I thought. There’s another like this where the nub looks parallel.

I would guess boy for you due to the thickness of the “nub”
I wonder if they just say it’s the cord 😂

I can’t wait to find out going to book an early gender scan I’m to impatient 🙈

Funnily enough I’m team green so I don’t actually want to know but tbh I think I’ve accepted it’s a boy and I know it’s a boy. (Not that it matters because it doesn’t) just won’t be a surprise 😂 xx
