Where's your 12 week photo? Do you have one? I read through a huge portion of the confirmed boy nub thread on in-gender and it's definitely made my hopes go down to tube! There are some very girly looking nubs on there! And I keep convincing myself that my little one's nub is going up but then again, I don't frequently look and guess people's nubs so maybe I'm getting anxious for no reason. It's stupid because I don't mind if I have a boy but the hope of a girl has suddenly made me all irrational and silly! Like... OH MY GOD, A GIRL?! I mean, stupid me *gasped* like a dummy when the tech/sonographer doing my NT scan, because I know her and she knew I was finding out gender anyway, and she said she wanted to say girl. She heard me gasp and said, "DON'T GO BUY ANYTHING." Probably thinking, "Oh good grief... what have I just said to this woman?!" Hahaha....Quote:

I have said this many, many times over the past week or so. ;) It just made the waiting (and obsessing) worse! I'm dreaming about nubs now -- and not just about my baby's nub, but about other people's, too!Quote:

Nubs make the whole thing more complicated, i have decided. It's horrible. I am dreaming of nubs as well (we had a gender scan that was determined solely on the nub. Lol). And I was actually quite fine thinking this baby was a boy until my nub turned up "very girly." But then, "very girly" doesn't mean much at the CRL my baby was measuring. I don't know where that stupid study got its numbers, because my baby was measuring 12 weeks, but the CRL was in their "11 week" range. So that just makes me even more skeptical that I could actually have a girl. I actually hate having the hope and having dreams that the baby is a girl...because I think that will make it worse when the tech says boy. My gut has said boy from the beginning...but as I know a few people finding out (and the gut instinct thread on here), it doesn't seem to matter what the "gut" says...I am seeing more wrong than right. So gosh only knows. But I am obsessing as well. And I will be delighted with a healthy baby anything, it's not planned to be our last so it isnt a "desperation" thing (although it will be with our next one if this is a boy, since that one WILL be our last). But geez. Its like a sickness, the obsessing.
I would love a link to that stupid study, LOL, because your post about it gave me a little bit of hope. ;) Seriously, nub theory has caused no end of worry and frustration and obsession and heartache and hope and anger since the scan.
We let our youngest make the FB announcement, since he's never gotten to do it before. ;)
