Hello there! Here is a picture of my NT Scan at 12 weeks, 1 day. The tech made a guess but wasn't 100% sure since she couldn't get baby to lay perfectly on his/her back. I would really appreciate any guesses :)

I am also experiencing quite a bit of gender disappointment, even though nothing is for sure yet. I just feel like my dream and vision for my family has died. And I have extreme guilt for feeling this way... It's been a rough day... When I should be nothing but happy.

HI there. 12 weeks is still early. By the looks of it, I'm guessing the tech said boy. We saw a nub like this recently and I thought for sure it was a boy but I was wrong. So, nub guessing is just that- guessing. Good luck with your pregnancy.

I'd guess a boy, but you are only 12 weeks so take my guess with a grain of salt :)

That looks like a boy nub, but nub guessing is only a guess. So try not to be too disappointed.

It does look very boyish but if the positioning wasn't right then you can't be sure. Plus, it's still so early.

Looks boy, but it also seems pretty big to me for 12 weeks. Don't get too sad until you get another scan.

Thank you everyone! I really appreciate all of your guesses - even though it's not what I want to hear.
I'm trying to accept a boy. I just ache so so badly for a little girl. We know for sure baby is 12 weeks because I had induced ovulation - so we know the exact date. :)
Thanks again! I'll be sure to update once we know for sure!

Thank you ladies! I think it's just going to take some time. I only cried twice in Costco yesterday... Maybe I should stay out of public for a while, haha. :)
