My guess is girl, it looks pretty parallel to the spine, and long and flat!!! I hope I am right!!

I have to ask... is the straight bright line what you are looking at?? Is that the nub? That definately looks girly. But is that it? I got so confused over all those nub shots somehow.. please somebody enlighten me :happy:

Yep the bright white line just after the baby's belly and close to the potty area if that makes sense. I think you are looking at the right thing.

yes its the bright line it is forked at the end but its just not in the pic

February 25th, 2013, 04:01 PM
Ok thank you!!! I was always wondering what that might be. So straight and somehow it seems so unnatural. But in all the nub shots, not just in this one :cool: Thank you both for clearing that up! :bighug:

SO exciting then!!!! I want to say congratulations to your girl!!!!!! :cheer::cheer::cheer:

I will def still be happy with another ds but all my different symptoms with this preg and girly nub I'm feeling a little bit confident.... Thank you all for your guesses so far :D I reall appreciate them!

Though i hate to say it, i think i see a boy nub on the end of that bright line. I only say it because i feel sad to see someone get their hopes up (i have 3 times with very similar nub pics). REALLY REALLY hope im wrong x

wanting a girl i have no idea i don't get nubs!

I would say girl as it doesn't 'look' like my boys scans ;-0 hope it's pinky, mainly excited to see the first picture from septembers group yeahy!

O no worrie I appreciate honesty and I'm not gonna get my hopes to up... I'm very on guard ... In the hard copy that I have of the pic it is forked at the end not blobbed so time shall tell

There is either something on the end of the nub that may mean it is a boy or just something that is part of something else that happens to be seen there. May be a boy.

jark22
February 25th, 2013, 05:38 PM
I think I can see this going either way. Although it looks very straight- which would mean girly- the end is throwing me off and making me thing maybe boy. I zoomed it in to circle what I'm talking about.... I hope it is your girl though.

Hoping this isn't too small....

I can see this going either way. If you want to look at my nub in the confirmed boy page it looks very similar. I still think it could be 50'50. Hope you get your desired gender. Best wishes!

Wanting-a-girl
February 25th, 2013, 05:49 PM
It is similar to yours! It is forked at the end I don't know maybe it was the lighting when I Took a pic of the pic but yes I can see it going either way cause I see a lot of girly nubs that are boy.... Will the fact that baby measures 13 week make it more likly to b a girl cause would ing it be more angled at that point?

Wanting-a-girl
February 25th, 2013, 06:38 PM
This pic is going to drive me crazy.... I just read the actual study that was posted http://www.fetalmedicine.com/fmf/1999_4.pdf and it says that at thirteen weeks a boy would be very angled and this nub pic I have is obviously not more angled than 30 degrees... It loos very parallel to me....and it has the typical fork on the end I need to try and get a better pic of it... Although I know boys can be forked to... It's just the angle and the gestation that makes me lean girl... I'm a realist and wishful thinking is not my thing and I know if I was guessing I would guess girl...... Sorry for the ramble lol

This is how I feel about mine! There are many instances in my video where the nub looks very straight and parallel with either a fork or bump at the end, but what I am really wondering is whether it should be more angled up if it was a boy, since my bub also measured 13 weeks on the day of the scan (4 days ahead actually).

So I am hoping for both of our sakes that we just have tricky girl nubs here. :pray:

Wanting-a-girl
February 25th, 2013, 06:53 PM
According to the study it would be a slim chance to be a boy

Cinss
February 25th, 2013, 07:46 PM
Its tricky, firstly i thought boy because i thought it was a stacked nub, but if you say it is forked rather then i'd have to say its girly. Some of my boy nub shots looked like a straight white line but it was angled up more than yours.

Wanting-a-girl
February 25th, 2013, 08:41 PM
Thanks for your opinion... I'm gonna try and get a pic of the fork up sometime soon I don't use my computer often... I live off the iPad and I can't upload with it

Yes according to the study......but there have been plenty of tricky nubs. I think that the angle of yours looks girl- but the end of it is tricky and looks like it could be stacked. Also- both boy and girl nubs can appear forked. That's why I think it can go either way. Below is a picture of ultrasounds that were all confirmed boy (12.5-13.5 weeks).

I would have to guess boy because of the end bit which looks like it's pointed up. Hope I'm wrong.

February 26th, 2013, 06:44 AM
I would have said 100 percent girl but that shadowy bit on the end of the nub is throwing me. I really hope it's your girl though...

I think I read you were surprised that the fetus measured 13 weeks. What gestation did you think you were?

Congratulations on a healthy baby, either way.

Wanting-a-girl
February 26th, 2013, 08:23 AM
It is measuring a whole week a head... I thought that was quite a bit... Thanks for all the guesses :) guess I won't be putting to much thought towards the nub lol

I am 50/50 at first glance it looks girly then that little bit on the top makes me think the whole nub isn't showing!

Southern Butterfly
February 26th, 2013, 10:19 AM
I've been going back and forth on wether or not to comment because I'm so afraid of being wrong and telling you what you may not want to hear (I'm in the same boat as you with 3 boys so I'm trying to think what I would want in terms of hearing the truth or not).

I've finally just decide to give my 2 cents and hope I'm wrong.... I've been on IG for quite a number of years and have seen many very flat nubs with a small
"bump" on top of the end (both forked and not forked) and almost every one turned out boy. I've never seen a flat confirmed girl nub with the bump. Again I am so praying I am wrong and I hope I've made the right decision in posting my opinion. I am really rooting for you!

Sway&Wish
February 26th, 2013, 11:08 AM
I think girl, but also think the end is tricky! good luck!

Sway&Wish
February 26th, 2013, 11:10 AM
Also thought that it is worth mentioning that babe is squished in at the bottom so it is harder to get a sense of the angle. Maybe the nub is even flatter than we think if the bum is curled up :)

black&gold
February 26th, 2013, 11:36 AM
oooohhhh I hope it's your girl! I'm torn, the nub is very straight and flat which makes me think girl, but when looking at the spine it looks like the nub might be on an angle so that leads me to think boy.. Either way, congrats on having a healthy babe in there!!

Wanting-a-girl
February 26th, 2013, 11:57 AM
I'm really happy with any baby in the end so I'm not gonna be heartbroken in any way with a boy... To be honest me wanting a girl is only the past 4 years I always wanted to be a all boy mom....

I guess it's a tricky one so we will have to wait and see...

You have a great outlook but I'm still hoping to be proven 100% wrong at your next scan!:wink:

Wanting-a-girl
February 26th, 2013, 12:11 PM
I think it could go either way ... I've seen perfect girly nubs be boys... I would never rely on a nub shot to confirm the gender ... That would be setting up for dissapointment

Southern Butterfly
February 26th, 2013, 12:30 PM
I zoomed in on your pic again and I'm now a little less confident. I'm hoping what some of us are seeing as a "bump" may be the top part of the fork you saw. Now I'm just confused so you have permission to ignore me!

Lol I'm gonna try and get a close up pic of it lol it is def a fork on my picture... I don't have a proper camera so I use a iPad to take pics of pics and then upload them on the Mac but I barley ever touch the computer.....it is def a fork not a bump I can assure of that I have no reason to pretend a bump is a fork lol... The think is the line in the fork is thin in the pic and the iPad takes really grainy pics

Wanting-a-girl
February 26th, 2013, 12:43 PM
Grrr I can't get a clear pic :( the camera is soooooo grainy on close ups

February 26th, 2013, 01:48 PM
If you can get a clearer pic or a scanned in one (that would be best), I'd love to see. I'm 50/50 on the image at this point, but if you are seeing a clear fork on the pic itself that is very promising :)

Both boys and girls have forks. Its the urethra that hasn't joined up yet. Boys its on top and girls bottom. (caudal notch/cranial notch I believe)

Boys also measure ahead.

But it looks nice and flat and defo could be a girl, imo
