Nub Guess Me?! Could Go Either Way Maybe?

[CatherineEarnshaw]

Hello everyone, I'm a long time lurker, new poster. I went for my 12 weeks scan on Friday, which I dated at 11 wk 6 days, but the sono measured baby to be 12 wks 1. I have attached my scan. I think it looks girly/boyish depending on when I look at it, but I'm leaning boy. Do you think the nub will rise? Is that usual, or not ever so likely? I'd love to hear your thoughts and guesses anyway. Thanks everyone - really appreciate your time.

Looks pretyy girly to me:)

I would guess girl... But don't go shopping based on nub ;) but I don't see it turning into a boy

[tmbabcock]

Girl!

[BeadinMom]

Looking girly to me!!! :)

[hezza88]

very girly

[hotdogz&boyz]

It's early...but very flat and long. I would guess girl for now. And I think it's more likely to remain girly than turn boy (per stats). But nothing is for sure at this gestation.

Looks girly, but is early...

Very girly, but at 11w6d its so early it could change. If its really 12w1d then it's a bit more reliable.

I agree with the others. It looks girly but early! I hope you get your DG.

Thanks so much ladies. I've really enjoyed reading your replies! I'm hoping to learn stuff so I can go ahead and give my nub guesses for others. Checking my dates, I'm wondering if I was even 11 wks 4 at the date of scan, although the sono did think I was further on, my OV dates don't match up. THat aside, do nubs tend to change, or do many stay the same, based on your experiences? I really have no idea about that. As my scan is on the early side, should I just think, it's pretty much 50/50, or are the odds tilted more than that? I should add that we are ecstatic to be having a healthy little baby, after a ruptured ectopic and miscarriage, so my nub guessing is a guilty pleasure really...we are over the moon with whoever is in there! Thanks again everyone. xxx

For me yours does look really flat, long and girly but it could well change, I would probably put an 80% pink on this one taking into account the gestation:) Hopefully this pregnancy will be super smooth for you and we'll see you back after your 20 week scan for an excited update from you lol, best of luck xx

Pink guess :) x

Thanks again - ELP I appreciate you giving me your views on stats...it does help to read that kind of detail. I saw Atomic Sagebrush's quote on these pages '11 weeks-12 weeks is not reliable for gender at all. Scans done at 11 weeks are basically useless, even at 11 weeks 6 days' and that kind of stayed with me. Thank you also for your good wishes - I will be back at 20 weeks, but might pop my head in before then to learn more about gender guessing! xxx

If it looks like that in a week, I'll say pink. ;)

[CatherineEarnshaw]

He he. Atomic Sagebrush, if I tell you how much I love your name, will you tell me if you think this little nub's likely to angle upwards at 13 weeks? :) Aahh. It was worth a try. :)))

Leaning pink.
