I am on my third pregnancy, and have two boys. I have just learned of the nub theory and thought I would get people's thoughts about if baby is a boy or girl? Thanks for reading. X

Do you have any other pictures? Think it's likely that what you think is a nub here is actually part of the leg x

Thank you - that thought did cross my mind! I am not sure the other images don't show what is probably the leg!

Yeah I think the nub is hidden on these sorry. It's so hard to find the actual nub! Mine had a perfect looking girl nub but he was a boy so goodness knows what it actually was 😂

Are you going to find out? Please let us know :)

That's funny how yours worked out!

I didn't find out with the boys so I will probably not find out to be honest. But maybe my 20 week scan will get a better image.

How exciting :) 3 little brothers or two big brothers to a girl would both be amazing to me.

A baby doesn't have a nub at 20 weeks. They have to give a really good look in that area to see lol

As long as baby is healthy that is all that matters but I have a healthy fear of living with 4 boys (if including my husband) 😂We also find boys names really hard so that could also be interesting!

No nub but maybe a more obvious sign although I have always looked away at that point before in scans!

I didn't find out the sex and the lady scanning me said even she wouldn't know unless she specifically looked. You may see the cord which makes it look like a boy.

Are you not tempted to find out?

Think i'm seeing this in the second photo now

Wildflowers15 · 18/04/2025 23:34

I better get working on those boys names then!!

No not too tempted, the surprise I read keeps you going during labour!

I actually found boy names easier but i guess if you've already used your two favs it would be hard 😂

It's still a surprise, how exciting!

Hope you don’t mind me jumping on, can anyone have a guess at my 12 week scan? I’m clueless at the nub theory 🙈😂

possibly a girl nub but don't think it's imaged in full. My boys looked like this
