Hello

Had my 12 week scan today and this is my scan pic!
Anyone want to guess for fun what they think sex of baby is?

I'm swaying towards a girl! But I'm always wrong 😂

well your baby is either a boy or a girl so you have a 50% chance of being right😃
the great thing is that whether a boy or girl they can do/like/dress in whatever way they please
congratulations on your healthy pregnancy

KatMcBundleFace · 22/02/2023 17:36

Congratulations!

BreviloquentBastard · 22/02/2023 17:40

Baby dinosaur.

Congratulations!

jetadore · 22/02/2023 17:40

Impossible to say until the child is old enough to tell you what it identifies as.

ComfortablyDazed · 22/02/2023 17:42

I dont think this is quite the right forum, but congrats on your pregnancy. I have no idea of the sex of your baby, sorry!

HagoftheNorth · 22/02/2023 17:43

I’m guessing your baby already has a sex, and will never actually have a gender. I did have some help from GCSE biology for that ;-)

Pixiedust1234 · 22/02/2023 17:45

No idea either but congratulations on your future bundle of joy and tiredness.

I'm better at guessing the sex on how the woman looks in later pregnancy tbh.

Sazzasez · 22/02/2023 17:57

Congratulations & well done!

I think it’s uterogender, but you should wait until you can take it to a toy shop & see what it gurgles at.

Helleofabore · 22/02/2023 18:04

Congratulations! It looks like a baby who is lying on its back chilling out.

FT123456 · 22/02/2023 18:08

I reckon a little boy

VoodooQualities · 22/02/2023 18:09

Don't be silly, sex is a social construct and anyway it's assigned at birth.

exwhyzed · 22/02/2023 18:13

it's neither a boy or a girl yet and a doctor will assign it to one or the other at birth.

if they pick wrong you can always change it later.

OhcantthInkofaname · 23/02/2023 00:01

"Assigned" nope. It means whether you have a male or female body and is determined by nature not a medical professional.

ComfortablyDazed · 23/02/2023 00:04

I think the PP was being sarcastic!

Rellywobble · 23/02/2023 00:04

I think probably a boy …maybe ignore some of the comments and put on pregnancy board .Congratulations 😘

IcakethereforeIam · 23/02/2023 00:14

Congratulations, is it a Leo?

donquixotedelamancha · 23/02/2023 00:15

Looks omnigender to me. Congrats OP.

CryptoFascistMadameCholet · 23/02/2023 03:22

Aw! Congrats!

I’m guessing it’s a girl but for pities sake don’t ask the MP for Brent (she thinks babies are born without a sex and presumably you have to ask them what they identify as before you send out your ‘New Baby’ announcements 👶)

You might want to ask MNHQ to move your thread to pregnancy as we’re the awkward, terfy Mumsnetters on the feminist naughty step, but you are more than welcome to hang out here if you like - just be aware you are going to get a lot of jokes about sex of baby being assigned by the midwife so you’ll have to wait and see on the day (and bribe her if you have a preference).

Sazzasez · 23/02/2023 09:26

I remember hearing about a character well-known in the East End in the 30s who called himself “Prince Monolulu”.

He claimed to be able to predict the sex of babies.

What he actually did was give you a sealed envelope - not to be opened until the birth.

Inside was a blue or pink envelope. Inside the blue envelope was a slip saying “girl” & inside the pink one was a slip saying “boy”.

On the off chance anyone complained (and I think very few ever did) he could claim it was a filing error.

Congratulations! Enjoy the best and most exhausting thing that’s ever going to happen to you!

I’m going with winston Churchill gender. That’s what both of mine were rocking for the first 3 months

GroggyLegs · 23/02/2023 10:07

Boy!

@BernardBlacksMolluscs - haha, that's who I looked like in the majority of my baby pictures too 😂
