12 weeks is pretty aggressive to go for an elective u/s!

I'd really, really, really take that with a grain of salt. 12+3 is really too early to guess on anything but a nub. And even nubs at that stage are not really as accurate as you are looking for. I'd try to keep in mind that it still might be a boy. Not because I think the tech is necessarily wrong, but I think it's a tad irresponsible of a tech (even a trained one) to guess so definitively that early.

Hmmm. Honestly from these I'd say boy. It's still early though.

i agree with Abi, i lean blue as well, but even with the best shot nothing is 100%. It was really irresponsible for anyone to tell you that it was a girl with anything more than a guess

I think the skull is boyish and to me the nub seems on the rise. Again, it's early.

This is what I see...based on the skull theory, it's a boy because the forehead is flat and the back of the head is very round (girls have round foreheads and flatter backs of skulls based on the theory). Also, the nub seems on the rise, as shown. Take this with a grain of salt as baby is not flat on his-her back and the full spine is not seen. Don't hold me to it or be sad...these pics are early and not the best for gender.

I think she was maybe referring to it being flat or something. I see how she thinks it could be kind of. She shouldn't have put that though because all babies still look pretty similar at this stage, especially from that angle.

You still Should have hope!
I know how you feel! I didn't get scans though. Team green. Some days I truly believe this is my girl!
But then everyone around me seem to have girls and I think this must be a boy again then.

But as long as I'm not sure I'm alowed to have hope!
So Should you!
