So excited to finally post here! This is our first, and I think hubby wants to stay team green but I would LOVE to know haha. The tech did ask us if we were going to find out, so maybe she saw something anyway? These were at 12w5d, but baby is measuring 13w1d.

Did you happen to get a full profile shot Taytum?

Basically those were the best ones she gave us - the rest are up close heads and a few hands haha.

They aren't great for guessing, unfortunately...I think I see something on one but don't want to guess on this poor of shots. :)

I know - I feel like that was my ultimate fear! I should have just been casual and said, "Can I get a nub shot just to have something to guess on the next few months?" Lol. Damn.
I can't say for sure if I saw something while she was zooming around or if it was just because I really WANTED to see something ha

Super cute baby [emoji4]!! I'm not going to hazard a guess from these pics.
I will tell you though, ALL of my boys measured ahead at my NT scans. So based on that alone, I'm leaning towards boy [emoji170]! Also, don't pay attention to the skull theory either- my DS2 had, and still has, the roundest head and frontal lobe (theory states he would be a girl)!

My husband has the roundest head! So right away when I saw that, I told him that the baby has his huge head haha! [emoji177]
I'm wondering if she left off full body shots because we had said we were going to wait? Maybe she saw something and didn't want us to! (Grabbing at straws haha!)

My boys were VERY obvious they were boys at this gestation. Maybe. Or baby was too squirmy and she didn't want to bother, since you said you were going to wait.

I'm going to give you a very careful boy guess from these, but as the others have said, they are not ideal pics for gender guessing. GL!

Here's an extra leg shot, just in case there's anything there!
Basically most of the time baby had his/her back to us, so when she finally got it to flip I think she was more concerned about getting neck measurements for the NT test.

Thanks everyone!! Baby is very loved either way and this was the COOLEST seeing him/her moving around on the u/s!
Am I at least partially right on guessing that there may be SOMETHING there to lean blue, but not clear enough to give a for sure guess?

Sorry to double post - but if I rotate the second image is that showing a nub?

Yes, if I was tied up and held at gunpoint and FORCED to make a guess on this, I would guess blue and I do think I ~maybe~ see something blue-ish, but as a general rule I do not like to guess on anything that is this unclear. :)

you can't rotate pics for nubs though because the gravity matters too - if baby is upsidedown all bets are off

Thanks atomic - sorry I held you at gunpoint! [emoji6]
Baby was right side up the whole time - but being a stubborn bugger some of the time! I've vowed at our 20 week scan I'm going to casually say, "Could you give us a shot just so we have something to guess off for the next 5 months?" And then hopefully get a potty shot that DH and I couldn't figure out but all your smart ladies can! Haha

Taytum..wanted to check in on you...and you are to the point of nub guessing! eeek :)
You arent crazy and MAYBE thats a nub and boyish...i would lean boy too from that picture...
Im glad baby is healthy and showing off for you regardless...if hubby wants to be team green but you are thinking you will cave and want to know at some point you can always have them take a look at the next ultrasound, write it down and put it in an envelope for your eyes only...then if you decide you WANT to know you have the ability to know and if hubby wants to stay in the dark he can wait and be surprised :)
either way, good luck :)

Thanks so much! [emoji4]
After my anxiety of a nub shot, I've really just come to peace with boy or girl. I think it would mean a lot to DH to have us both surprised at birth and experience it together.
DH also is adamant that he just "knows" it's a boy so I'm living through that haha. And, on my online chart there's a spot they fill in for gender so maybe I'll get lucky and they'll accidentally post it after next scan. [emoji6] But I'll probably avoid specifically asking for it as I know DH would be disappointed. But if they accidentally tell me thennnnn...not my fault! Haha!

I LOVED being surprised the 2 times I did it with my first two guys. It bums me out that GD ever started to mess with my head because then I missed out on that experience with the rest. :/

Our first was a surprise and I would always recommend they experience for at least one child as it is pretty amazing. I really really wanted a girl so there was some GD when he was born but it didn't overshadow the overal excitement and joy :)
I would love to have a suprise again but due to GD I would probably find out earlier in preparation so that is another reason II'm happy I did it the first time!

Thanks everyone for your support and reassurance that we're not too crazy for waiting for the big surprise. Like I said, the longer this pregnancy goes, the more at peace I am with boy or girl. I'm sure I say that now because it could still be a he, BUT, I'm going to buy a super cute girl going home outfit and then envision putting her in it. [emoji4]
I may become obsessive again at our 20w appointment trying to get a peek...but after that I really will just have to wait with no other u/sounds! Haha

Here's our new pics! I think baby's legs were crossed or closed up and I didn't see much, but at the end tech said she knew! She also said by "soft markers" she could tell too. Anyway, here's some pics for you all - I'm convinced we'll just have to wait until May! [emoji4]

So cute taytum.
I was told i have partial placenta previa. Do you ladies know if it moves away from cervix after some weeks or is it going to stay this way?
I was hoping for vbac this time but i guess i had to go through section again

I don't know much about it - but I have heard that sometimes it will move as your uterus gets bigger and that it may not be a problem when it's time for baby to come. I would just hope for the best and keep your eye on it, from what I know (again, not much!) I think partials have more likelihood to move.
Hope you get your vbac! [emoji4]

I know what you mean! I've decided I'm not going in with any sort of birth plan other than give me a healthy baby in any way possible, natural or c-section!
Oh I almost forgot about the profile shot! Just in case you ladies think this skull looks one way or the other!
