Boy nub or no nub?

[Northernsparkle]

Would anybody be able to take a look at this for me please? Baby was measuring 12 weeks exactly and I think that I see a boyish nub at the bottom of the pic but my friend says there is no nub! Thank you!https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180914/634f3838f3c40b752848edf409f859c8.jpg

Sorry, I can’t make out anything in that scan, is the head really on the left?

[Northernsparkle]

Yes sorry we didn’t get any good ones. Head on the left - I’ve tried to draw a ring around what I thought was the nub. Probably completely wrong! https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180914/651ce02bb0db273040f3cdecd53f301f.jpg

There is no nub visible in this pic. Baby's bottom is a bit angled away so nub can't be seen.

[Northernsparkle]

Thank you, that’s almost a relief, I can keep the dream alive a bit longer! Thanks for replying [emoji4]

Definitely unable to say boy or girl as can’t see anything resembling a nub. I should say it’d be too early to tell even if there was a nub?

There's definitely still hope for a girl, nothing "boyish" is visible here at all. Good luck, come back and update when you find out :happy:

[atomic sagebrush]

That's not suitable for guessing at all. nothing boyish whatsoever on this picture! :) Sweet baby!!

[Northernsparkle]

Thank you for your reassurance. I had bloods taken today for the NIPT so should know in 10 days or so. I don’t dare to even hope though and feel sick constantly thinking about getting that email! Will update for sure [emoji4]

[Northernsparkle]

I had to go back for another scan today and this time I’m convinced I see a rising nub. I’d really appreciate your input as I am pretty clueless but just want to be prepared. Is this the nub with a fork at the end? Thanks so much.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180918/02606ae3ee56383ecf0cc9dbd1c5dc71.jpg

I think I’m seeing what you see - I would say boy - but I’m no expert x


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

[Throwaway_panther]

I truly don't see a clear nub in this shot! I think leg bone is being confused for nub here, as it's not protruding from body but running along with body! Nor do I think your first shot looked boyish at all, either. Really hoping you get your girl! <3

[ksmom]

Eh, I think I see the nub a little and possible stacking but like others said, it's not very clear. I almost feel like the nub is cut off so we're not seeing all of it.

[Northernsparkle]

Thank you ladies I can’t describe how sick I feel not knowing, I’m sure it’s worse than any GD I have experienced. I just want to start dealing with it either way. Really appreciate your replies x

I’m looking at it again now and I’m not sure what I’d say.... im not sure if I do think boy now....I’m still 50:50

What is the gestation of your newest scan pic? I'm almost getting girly vibes on your latest pic but I'm not sure if I'm seeing the whole nub or not.

[Northernsparkle]

This is 12 + 5 - they moved my due date forward by 3 days based on this scan x

What things did you do to sway pink northernsparkle? Xx


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I followed the LE diet for about 8 months before my BFP with meat once a week, 3 coffees per day, fibre when I remembered before meals, skipped breakfast religiously.
I really wanted to do clomid but could only get 2 months supply and my BFP was 2 months after the clomid so probably didn’t count.
We only had one attempt and dh had been quite poorly for a while before and on medication that I believe is bad for sperm health so hopefully that goes in our favour.
That’s it really - I could have done more I guess but am happy I gave it my best shot without getting obsessed and keeping things normal for my family.
Are you currently swaying? xx

Thank you Atomic, do you think this has girlie potential? I’m prepared to hear either way and really value your opinion, or is it still earlier than you are comfortable guessing?


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

[ObsidianBlossom]

Sounds like a fantastic sway northernsparkle. I think you’re doing the things I’m doing too our sways sound similar although I’m exercising a lot too. Annoyingly i successfully swayed pink four years ago and now I’ve forgotten half the things I did as I didn’t think we would have anymore children. I lay in bed trying to rewind nearly five years ago lol x


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

[Northernsparkle]

I admire you with the exercise, I genuinely don’t know how a lot of the ladies find time, I’m ready for bed by 8 and can never seem to find a minute in the day! It’s good that you’ve got a successful sway under your belt, you know it’s possible for you [emoji4] I’m sure it will all come flooding back! I will look out for your updates and send lots of luck your way [emoji4]xx


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

[ObsidianBlossom]

Thankyou northernsparkle- However some of the things I did when I got my daughter are blue swaying things - I had porridge every morning not realising breakfast was a no no haha! Fingers crossed for you - we are ttc from November so it’ll be a while before I can update. Just had a setback at work regarding my working hours so may have to hold off ttc a little longer for financial reasons x

[Northernsparkle]

Oh ladies, just feeling so incredibly down. Phoned Babybond today as it’s been 7 days but they said Tuesday at the earliest for my results. Also my sister put my scan photo on a forum that she is on and got mostly boy guesses so just so deflated and wish I could be happy either way. I wish I’d have asked for more nub shots but I could barely speak I was so scared! It’s going to be a long weekend but just wanted to say how much I appreciate your input, makes me feel I’m not alone or completely crazy! x

[Northernsparkle]

Just found this second picture which I hadn’t noticed in the envelope! Pretty sure there’s no nub but just clutching at straws, it’s a few seconds before the first one. Sorry for obsessing x

That pic you’ve uploaded looks girly to me!!! I’m sending you hugs hun, it’s still 50:50 at the moment perhaps a little more as you swayed! I would be feeling just the same in your shoes so I’m struggling for words of comfort. Fingers crossed for you and what will be will be hun. X

[Northernsparkle]

Thank you so much, I think it’s because it’s the end of such a long journey, I’ve dreamt of a girl from being about 12! This time next week I’ll have closure one way or another. Thank you for your support it means a lot x


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

[ObsidianBlossom]

That’s ok hun, I think your chances are good as you’ve done a good sway. I know each pregnancy chance is 50:50. Scan pictures can be so deceiving all depends on how baby is moving about and cord can be mistaken for boy bits to the untrained eye. I feel a bit greedy for wanting and swaying for another daughter so much as I know there are women who can’t have babies and who would do anything for one daughter let alone two. I’d say I’m fairly unlucky with most things in life so I’d like to think I’m lucky with some things and having a son and a daughter has certainly been one of those things. Let’s hope my lucky lasts a little longer when I hopefully get pregnant with baby number 3 soon xx


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

[Northernsparkle]

I wouldn’t see you are greedy at all, our true feelings and hearts desires are beyond our control and completely valid. I hope you are lucky this time around too and that it happens quickly for you. The diet can seem like a struggle at times. So glad I can eat cheese on toast got breakfast again! x

Keep us updated lovely!! I really think it looks like a girly nub im pretty good at the nubs!! But either way you know whatever the sex your baby will have its own individual personality and think of all those new baby cuddles big hug

[missiz]

im in the same boat as you, waiting for blood test results which should be coming this week, it is sooo hard not to think about it constantly and its just doing my head in :( I hope for your sake that you have your little girl, I havent even had a scan yet so cant even guess what I might be having ahaha oh dear xo

Thank you so much, it’s the little bobbly bit on top that I keep coming back too. I almost wish I didn’t have a nub shot to obsess over! And you are right, this baby will be so loved regardless as I didn’t think I’d get this chance again. I just keep imagining how it would feel to tell dh we are having a little girl and it’s hard to let go of.
Should know by Tuesday so will definitely update x

It just takes over doesn’t it no matter how hard you try to keep distracted. I’ve been checking my emails every three minutes! I hope that you get your little girl too and that the next few days go quickly for the both of us. I almost wish I didn’t have a picture now I think it’s making me worse although it’s so comforting to have the ladies with lots of experience give their opinions. I’m just practicing seeing BOY written in black and white so that I’m prepared, honestly I don’t think I’ve ever felt this crazy!!!
I’ll be thinking of you and looking out for your update x

You will know soon! Let us all know! When i was pregnant i obsessed over the nub my first and didn't want to know or mind but obsessed anyway as you could see it!! There is an insta page called strictly nub theory there are no boy nubs like yours. Do you think when i have another one i could say please leave off nub or they will think im crackers and not know what I'm talking about ! X

What a lovely thing to say, you must be able to sense how deeply this has run through my life for the last ten years. It truly is impossible to describe to people outside of this forum and my husband the impact that GD can have. I never thought I would feel this completeness and I genuinely wish that everybody on here will also get to experience this inner peace and sheer joy.
I hope with all my heart that you will get your little boy and will be looking out for updates xxx

I‘m pretty sure this picture was taken from above, so we see baby‘s head with the two brain stems and eye holes and Babys belly. There is a nub pictured but from that angle it’s impossible to say if it points in any direction..

Just wanted to update and say that our little girl arrived in March and the completeness I feel is indescribable. After living with GD for over 12 years to not have it hanging over me anymore is such a relief and a blessing that only those who have felt the very real pain of GD will truly understand.
Thank you so much to you all for your support and to Atomic for making what seemed unreachable into a reality. I am so very grateful for my crazy but perfect family. Here is baby Elowen Eva, her 4 big brothers are amazing with her and daddy is besotted!
I am convinced we would not have her if I had not discovered this site [emoji3590]

Aww I’ve just read this whole thread. Huge congratulations. It must feel so strange not having the GD anymore after 10 years. I’m currently pregnant with a girl after six years of GD and can’t quite believe it until she’s here. I feel like it’s a dream. I have also bought the same baby grow as your first picture and that’s going to be her going home from hospital grow so it was strange seeing your dd as made me think about how it (hopefully) will be for me in November

[atomic sagebrush]

oh Northern THANK YOU for updating us!! She is absolutely scrumptious and what a lovely name!! :heart:
