Anyone good at the nub theory ?

[huggiess]

I can't see one 😆

Girl

@PickledScrump thanks, what makes you think that ?

Assuming baby was over 12 weeks in this pic, then girl. The nub is pointing down.

Looks girly but if before 12 weeks it can still rise. What did they date you at OP? x

12+1

@huggiess the nub is parallel to the spine. But it can still rise until 12+4.

Ahh I see, thank you !

I’m probably being really stupid but I still can’t work it out! Are you able to show on the photo the nub please? I only ask as I’m sat looking at my 12 week scan wondering where the nub is!! Thank you!

@Bostonbullsmumma its a white line. On this photo it looks similar to the line on the nose

Thank you! I can see where you mean now

I would say girl as nub parallel to the spine and looks a little forked at the end. Looks like my 12 week scan and she's now due in the next couple of weeks! ❤️

Aw thanks for the guesses everyone, I have lots of baby girls clothes that I'm hanging on to until the 20 week scan !

I’d say girl too x

@huggiess Having literally just looked up nub theory I'd say girl but I wouldn't trust me 😂

I'm 14+3 today and I've gone off all food. Not normally like me at all! Just don't fancy anything. Just ate scrambled eggs on toast and feeling a bit sick after it so that's another one to avoid 😅 The only thing I've enjoyed so far is plain carbs... Mash with gravy or salty fries.

I’d also say girl, based on where I think I can see the bladder as well. My baby boy’s nub looked similar at 12 week scan but his bladder was much lower x

So I did an early glimpse today

Aww as we thought! I’ve got food aversions too wondering if I’m having a girl because I didn’t go off any food when I was pregnant with my little boy- 2 completely different pregnancies xx

Aww you will have to let us know if it was accurate at your 20 weeks scan!

Sorry OP for jumping on the thread but hope you don't mind? (haven't had much guesses on my own) 🤣 anyone want to take a guess on mine? Scan was 12+3 😊

@huggiess I thought I would try it too
.. and they have said girl for me also but only 80% confidence hadn't even been an hour before they emailed me back! Be interesting to see if their right or not tbf as I'm not 80% confident at all!

@MummyTo4BoysXXXX Ooh that was quick! I would have struggled with your scan as I don't think the nub is as visible 😂 I'm not a pro or anything tho I just learnt how to find it when I had my 12 weeks scan as I was desperate to find out🤣 would this be your first girl if it is? (Going off your username!)

@isitaline97 yes it would be 🤣 find out what I'm having on 20th September! Seems so far away I hate waiting haha.. when you learnt yourself what to look for with nub theory on your 12 week scans, have you always been right then? x

@MummyTo4BoysXXXX aah how lovely! The wait seems forever away doesn't it, it'll soon come though. Yes I was pretty sure mine was a girl going off my 12 week scan (I actually used a protractor to measure the angle and everything 😂) and my gender scan confirmed it! I did have a really good picture of the nub tho so I guess it depends on baby's position and the angle of the ultrasound. This is my first so only tried it once with mine, but I've been fairly successful on other nub threads 😂 I'm 37 weeks today so I guess I'll find out for sure very soon!

@isitaline97 do you mind sharing with me your 12 week scan photo? Just out of curiosity 😊 and oh not long for you then could be any day now and you will have a little one in your arms 🥰 congratulations! x
