Thanks Sweetpea!
What are the chances that this nub is actually the cord???
So I went through the confirmed girl pics on IG and found 2 other members here who had boy guesses and similar nub as mine...
Wish I felt as confident as you ladies lol.
My big thing with wanting to know what my chances really are looking at the nub is that: IF I were to get girl guesses I would have decided NOT to find out gender at the 18-20 week scan. But being that all guesses are boy not just here but on another forum I am at now has me really very curious! If I knew it was a boy I would find out for sure!!
I am trying to protect myself from GD during the pregnancy.. and figure if it is looking like a girl I may as well just wait until birth and by then it won't matter once she is in my arms. I want to enjoy the pregnancy without being hindered with GD.
Thanks for listening guys and sorry for being so obsessive about this nub business :think:
Believe me, I understand, TTC5. I sometimes struggle with the decision to find out early like I'm planning. I've had far less consensus over my scan than you have, so I think I probably only have something like a 60/40 chance of it being a girl, so as that scan date approaches I am TERRIFIED I'm going to hear boy. It's a tough decision whether or not to find out. I didn't find out with my twins and I was convinced they were girls, and in those first few moments after the birth of ds1 my first thought was 'Damn! I wish he'd been a girl!' I've always felt guilty about that. Luckily, since they were my first, I didn't really suffer bad GD and got over it quickly. With DS3 I DID find out, and I'm glad I did. It meant I had some bad GD mid-pregnancy, but I was able to get over it, and by the time he was born I was excited to meet him. It helped being able to give him a name, buy him clothes, etc. while I was still pregnant.
The difference this time is that I don't have a backup plan. With ds3 I knew there was a chance we could try again, and I think that's what helped me get over my GD. This time I know there's no possibility of us ever trying again - even just planning for this 4th baby has put a lot of strain on my relationship with dh who thinks we're already overextended, and he's right. I worry that if I hear boy I'm going to be plunged into a major depression for the next 24 weeks or so and won't be able to enjoy my last pregnancy. Then again, I want to be prepared. Somehow I feel it would be worse to spend the whole 9 months keeping up hope it would be a girl only to be disappointed at delivery. I just know I wouldn't be able to resist buying some pink stuff just in case, and boy would it be painful to never get to use it.
I also feel like I'm so anxious over the gender already and frequently going into mini depressions when I convince myself it's a boy, I might as well end my suffering now and at least start the process of moving on instead of staying in this limbo for 5 more months.
I'm fairly positive you have a boy in there, but of course there's no way to be 100% sure with a nub shot - you will always find exceptions if you dig through confirmed nub shots long enough. If you really, genuinely know you don't want to know if it's a girl, then maybe you shouldn't find out. If you can manage to hold out you're a stronger woman than me! I'm waaaay too impatient!
We are the same Mocha this is definately our last try!
Ok ladies our scan is in 3 weeks time, any more guesses?
the more I look at this "nub" the more I think it isn;t a nub? I mean, it is up way to high to be a nub shouldnt it be lower?
Both the nub and skull look :DS: to me :)
I SAY BABY BLUE BOY JOY!!!! :)
So you dont think it is too far up the tummy to be a nub? I just have it in my head that we are going to hear girl again LOL!
Pretty certain that's a boy!
Oh ladies I so hope you are all right.
TTC5 just looking at your pics gee they so remind me of my ds pics and even your babies head looks like his did
TTC5 Yes I do have them in an album I can try and scan them onto here if you like...
RainbowF, could you and the other ladies look at my grandbaby's nub shots? I was able to find to better pic's...I'll attach them here....PLZAttachment 2149Attachment 2150 Thanks so much!
Attachment 2154HappyLea, could you and the other ladies take a look at my new nub pic's I'm posting?? Whatcha think??Attachment 2153
Oh sorry! I posted the pic's on the same thread! Remember I'm new at this "posting" LOL
Anyone else want to take a look and guess?
TTC5, I guessed already, but I'm wondering when your official gender scan is?
TTC5 I am on a mission right now to scan my d/s pics for you to have a look at
It is! I keep changing my mind about wether to find out or not, LOL!
What do you ladies think the chances could be of this "turning into" a girl...
Slim to none! I think you should find out TTC5, because I really think you will hear great news if you find out!
16 days left!!!!! aghhhhhhhhh LOL!!
TTC5, you better immerse yourself in something to keep your mind off of your scan, or else you'll go crazy! LOL! Dive into some good books, watch a bunch of TV, cook a bunch of yummy dishes, go out shopping, etc! In about two weeks' time, I'm sure you'll be getting the news you want to hear anyway, so don't stress yourself out, my dear!! ;)
We had a scan yesterday 17w 4days and we saw something down there when in the potty shot position but the dr would not say the gender (they dont tell you until 20 weeks here) so even more suspence lol.
Oooohhhh yah!!
TTC - you should post that picture you posted on the other thread. I think it was pretty obvious what that 'thing' was :bigsmile:.
Not letting me add attachments right now will try again later :)
I'd love to see the pic
Girls tell me why you think it looks like a boy? I thought it the nub was parallell to spine it indicates girl and dont you all think mine is in line with the spine? It doesn't looks at least 30deg raised at all???
