Looks girly to me! Great images!

[GreaseMonkey]

Thanks NBP I thought so too!! I am very happy with them :)

[atomic sagebrush]

too early for me to say either way but what a GORGEOUS baby. You make the cutest kiddos!!

[GreaseMonkey]

:HH:

[NCBeachyGrl]

Very promising for pink!!!!!!!!! My fingers are crossed with everything!!

[hotdogz&boyz]

Please don't maul me...but I would guess boy. At 12+1, I feel like both images show angle and the potential for even more over the next week or two. I hope that all the rest of the ladies are right and my eyes are broken. ;)

[secretly sad]

Girl for sure x

Lol, you are ok, I am still thinking boy too even though I have no clue about the nub theory ;) Haven't bought anything yet so who knows, you might be the only one that was right!!

[GreaseMonkey]

I should mention that when I was getting the u/s done I saw clearly 3 lines, the middle one was longer than the rest of the 2 which was making me think boy. Plus I "think" but not exactly sure she had the wand on the potty shot and was definitely something there. But I am not sure about either of those things, those were observations from me lol

[Sway&Wish]

girl :)

[shellbell34]

girl

[OnlyPraying]

The first one looks just like my DD2 U/S! So I'm gonna guess GIRL!! GL! :)

Thanks everyone, got pretty much all girl with the exception of hotgodz :) Anyone else want to take a guess?

[Typical_Jules]

GIRLIE GIRL :DD: it's only a touch early but it's pretty flat I see no angle, girlie shape, no buys clues to be seen IMO

[sweetdream]

I would go for boy too. The tip already seems to be a bit rising.
But its very early.

[GreaseMonkey]

Thanks ladies, 3 boy guesses so far, 1 on IG too :) Then about 20 girl guesses lol

[Waiting4Daisy]

I think girly girl :-)

[GreaseMonkey]

Looks like it's a boy, it's more than 45 degrees.

I'm pretty sure that's not how you work the angle out. It's the angle in relation to the spine. Hopefully someone else can work this out for you.

[GreaseMonkey]

This is a picture an u/s technician did and I borrowed it since it's my picture lol.

[Sway&Wish]

check out some of the research articles on this - you will see this is not how to do the angle. the newest stuff uses the lower spine to set the straight line (your pic wouldn't be sufficient to do this properly because the spine is not fully showing and the spine isn't perfectly straight). It is a girl nub, the only question is whether it will rise with time :)

[Typical_Jules]

I agree that's not how you work the angle out. I know this us a tech and that's why I'm gob smacked :confused:

[GreaseMonkey]

Thanks ladies, if someone is able to get the image and draw the proper lines where it's supposed to be feel free to do so! I am still thinking blue as the tip is raised a bit so we shall see in 2 weeks.

Thanks for all your responses :)

[nuthinbutpink]

Whoever drew on that has no idea how the nub theory works. 12w1D is still a little early, but it does look like a girl nub image. There is no boy bump.

You draw a line ON the nub following its direction and then ON the bright white spine line and continue the lines straight out. Your lines would almost cross I think.

GIRL

The nub would be visible (as a penis) in a potty shot at that gestation. If it's there, it is usually showing that the nub is not pointing up much, so it's more likely to be a girl, not a boy.

I still think girl. Good luck ;)

It was CC?? :think:

I am not an expert in nubs in ANY way and I personally don't like guessing on nubs this early in gestation anyway because even the girliest ones can rise. But it's like the drawing of the angle ignores the TOP of the nub - which isn't that the part that would rise anyway??

[atomic sagebrush]

potty shot is meaningless at 12 w 1 d

[prayforprincess]

your nub (its the end of it that truly matters) is not pointing up, its pointing straight out. Take a look at "most" boy nubs.
Even if the shaft (as I call it) is slightly angled or straight, its the nub at the end that is pointing more upwards in boys and usually in more of a bulb shape.
You have to draw a line the direction the end of the nub is pointing and in your case its pointing straight for the most part. It certainly is not 45 degrees from the spine.
I think you still have a great shot here.

Has anyone watched the video? What do you think?

[NCBeachyGrl]

I saw the IG thread and I am sold you are having a DD!!

[GreaseMonkey]

I'm getting there but I am not all the way there yet lol

I am interested to hear from the ladies that said boy! Interested to see what they think after watching the video!!

[NCBeachyGrl]

you should post the pics that Lovemy4 and Becky made :eek:

[OnlyPraying]

OMG 178 HB???? Thats 200% girl! I ONLY got it that high with my girls..I swear thats a girl....

[prayforprincess]

i saw the nub again -- its definitely looks girl.
Rest assured.

[hotdogz&boyz]

I'm not seeing anything very boyish on that. I saw a glimpse of the nub a couple times, baby was certainly moving quickly. :D Im pretty 50/50, I wish YouTube would let me zoom in more. But it did look more straight than not. :)

[atomic sagebrush]

I hope and pray it's a girl but heart rate does not predict gender! My girl's was my lowest HB of 5!

[momto4boyz]

I agree. My youngest sons HB was always HIGH, I wouldn't predict gender based on that.

good luck :D

Yeah, I tried to figure out how to zoom in but I can't. One of my good friends outside of boards took a picture off the ultrasound, will find it and post it :)

I did look at the video though. I swear it looks like a girl nub! Crossing fingers for you!!!

[GreaseMonkey]

I have never had a video of my boys so I was excited :)

[aidansmum]

I see a little girl nub in the video Grease! You better start believing it! :)

[Typical_Jules]

1000% girlie nub in the video:DD::HH::celebrate::agree::ballerina::pinkspe rm::princess:

[GreaseMonkey]

Eeeekkkkk, I am getting there!!! I went back to my baby registry and added a ton of pink but I am waiting for the 100% confirmation in 4 weeks before I start buying anything!! My mom messaged me this morning and told me not to buy anything because mistakes happen lol

So, it's kind of hard to get excited all the way when people like that try to (unbeknown to them) bring you down to Earth!

[OnlyPraying]

Yes and that's your experience, for me heart rate has always been a major factor in gender with all of my pregnancies. Was just sharing that.

Oh my it must be real! So excited for you! My baby's heart rate was only 145 yesterday, that's the lowest it's been she was probably sleeping.

[GreaseMonkey]

Mine was very active!!!!!! All over the place and that's why the Dr was moving fast while doing the scan he was trying to keep up with the baby lol

You are always welcome to share your experiences of course, but it's more than just our experiences, it's been studied and found to be nothing but and old wives' tale and I just don't like people to have false hope or false despair over something that has been proven to be totally unreliable. :) No offense meant at all.
