differing nubs, pics added

[Tulips]

I really don't want to post pics as I'm scared of being told def both boys. I also don't have great shots though a good DVD which I can't get to upload

I had a scan at 13+6, twin 2 was measuring 13+5 & twin 1 was measuring 14+2

The sonographer who did it was very experienced but I still hold out hope he got twin 2 wrong.

I have a few questions though if anyone can answer them.

Twin 1 had a classic boy nub, a bump rising almost straight up clearly defined. He did have the cord between his legs for the whole scan though, this can't image as a bump though can it?

Twin 2 has a distinct nub sticking out at 13+6 would this have shrunk? When the sonographer was pointing out boy he said see this bump doesn't it look like boy but he was on a diagonal and almost a potty shot I think the nub though obvious was pointing out not up. We could clearly see the nub on the 3D looking like a little winky but I still think it wasn't angling up.
At almost 14 weeks should a girl nub be completely flat or is a little angle still ok?
I just don't know Twin 1,'s nub is so classic I have no doubts but looking through the girl confirmed pics I can see lots of nubs that look like twin 2's and have been girls. When the full nub is not imaged it looks like a flat line but when the full nub is imaged it is distinctly sticking out and a bit up but is flat on top not a bump like twin 1's.

I understand if no one wants to answer with no pics but if anyone has any thoughts I would be grateful.

This pregnancy was very unexpected, I thought I was done with my 3 boys and was happy but now there is a chance to have a girl again it's bringing back my GD.

It's really hard to say. You are fairly far along. I would have expected a potty shot to look like a girl and if the nub is still present between the legs, it would be really small and very pointy.

It is nub GUESSING. A lot of it depends on the tech knowing what they are doing and getting the right image when it comes to us.

Cord looks like 3 lines usually floating out from the body and no really attached. It isn't solid looking like a nub would be.

hard to tell without seeing pictures.

Chances are if the tech was experienced then he is correct about the gender. Without images though I can only speculate.

With twin A i dont think cord can be mistaken for nub, especially by am experienced tech, so its safe to say you have 1 boy. With twin B measuring 4 days behind twin A it may look the teeny tiniest bit different and it sounds like you were looking at it from a different angle, so it is hard to say. If you do get brave enough to post pics im sure we could be more helpful, but i understand if you dont want to just yet.

Ok the first pic is literally 1 sec before the second. Please be gentle.

These are both twin 2, I am basically 100% sure twin 1 is a boy.

[lovemy4]

I have to be honest, it looks very much like a boy nub. Twins are special regardless of the gender, though, and I'm sure these little ones will be a wonderful addition to your family :LotsofLove:

[nuthinbutpink]

Twin boys are very rare and very special IMO.

[Tulips]

Thank-you, I was hoping the fact it was flatter on top might mean more likely girl but I felt if I posted the pic I would hear boy. The other 3 boys all had quite distinct 'almost on top 'bumps at this stage so it's different to any of my boy nubs I've seen. Thank-you though.

[Tulips]

I know they are special I just would have loved a wee girl. My sister has a terminal condition and when she passes it will be me in a sea of boys.
I love my boys very very much and would not swap one of them for anything it's just hard as these babies were never meant to be and it's sad saying goodbye to that dream again.

[nuthinbutpink]

I hope that we are wrong and one of them is your DD. Why were they not meant to be? Were you not TTC? That's a bit of a shock I'm sure when you conceive twins and weren't really trying!

If it is 2 boys, you will always receive a lot of attention the rest of your life when you are with them. You can either embrace it or take issue with it. I encourage you to embrace it. It gives your boys the opportunity to be special and be seen. When I go somewhere with my 4 kids, we are a sight regardless of gender. My girls hear lots of comments and they have taken their cues from me and they have learned to embrace them.

It makes you special, it makes them special. I hope you will see that if these are twin boys.

I'm sorry about your sister. I hope she gets what she needs if that is possible.

I'd been told to have no more kids due to medical risk, this was a timing & condom failure. They must have been conceived at least 5 days before O.

No matter what I will love them and treasure them, my boys are so special to me. They have never heard I wanted a girl if anyone comments I am always positive about my boys. I actually love being a mom of boys I just would have liked to raise a daughter too.

My sister needs a new heart, we hope it will happen but we know the risks after my Dad had his transplant.

[Wanting-a-girl]

Two very beautiful boys! Congrats

This is how I fell pregnant this time (albeit only with one). What luck, eh? It looks like I'm baking my fourth boy. He'll be loved, I just had my heart set on a daughter.

So sorry to hear of your sisters condition.

I don't know anything about nubs but I'm hoping for you. Wishing you the best.

hmm I'd actually be tempted to say pink
