Convinced I was having a boy, nub theory suggests girl? ❤️

As title says. Do you think baby is a girl or boy? I can’t work it out. But I keep looking at pics and does this look like a girl? I’m currently 13 weeks x

With both of my children I had a very strong gut feeling about their sex and I was right both times. So I'd say if you are feeling strongly that baby is a boy, then don't discount it.

Congrats.

I think boy (more based on skull than nub).

Josfusthecat · 14/02/2025 13:24

I’m 100% certain it’s a boy, and gut feeling is important.

husband thinks it’s a girl.

as long as baby is healthy!

It is either a girl.or a boy, yes.
And gut feeling is not at all important. You have a 50/50 chance of being correct and it means absolutely nothing

I’m not sure why you feel the need to post this? It’s just a bit of fun. Maybe you’re not having a good day

I don't see the fun. Either find out or wait..this nub theory stuff is just silly. As for pretending you can know....please

I was 100% certain.

I was 100% wrong.

Why are you bothering to post?

Why does anyone bother to post?

Blue2020 · 14/02/2025 15:14

I guessed boy with my first and I was right. I guessed boy with my second and I was wrong.

I would guess boy for you, based on the skull. I can’t see the nub. I only used skulls both times with mine and was only 50% correct, it’s not been known to be reliable.

PoorLion · 14/02/2025 15:16

Heart rate?

Babybaby2025 · 14/02/2025 16:10

My gut feeling said boy to the extent we referred to baby as a he, we were wrong 😂

I agree it's a bit of fun, and it added to the joy of finding out as we were amused we got it so confidently wrong. I wouldn't say gut feeling is important but its perfectly valid to entertain as a bit of fun, even if you get it wrong.

I think nub looks girly but it isn't a clear shot

Wavescrashingonthebeach · 14/02/2025 16:14

Every single time been convinced was having a girl.
Nope 3 boys 😂

jellyfish2 · 14/02/2025 16:30

@Josfusthecat I would just ignore posters who like to jump on posts to be awkward.

I can't see the nub on your picture but I agree people have a gut feeling. I'm on my second pregnancy and haven't found out - will be flabbergasted if it's a girl as I feel so strongly it's a boy! I see other posters have been convinced that they were having one sex and it turned out to be the opposite so you never know. Are you finding out?

Mumofteenandtween · 14/02/2025 16:36

I was completely convinced that both of mine were boys. One was!

CriticalOverthinking · 14/02/2025 16:38

If you want to know either get an early private scan, wait for 20 weeks or do the blood test.
IMO nub theory isn't reliable.

I was 'sure' both times, and wrong both times. But waited until birth as I wasn't bothered either way. Much preferred finding out when they were born

User7288339 · 14/02/2025 16:46

I had a gut feeling my first was a boy, was convinced.
I was wrong. HTH.
