11 weeks is too early, don't even worry about it! Those are some cute babies!!

This made me feel a lot better!! Thank you, Atomic! :awe:

Baby B skull looks just like all three of my boys so maybe a boy and a girl! :)

Can't see nubs in these pictures but just wanted to let you know our baby girl had a risen angle. I think it was about 22-25 degrees I worked it out at. I was sure she was a boy and when I had my 20 week scan on a very high tech machine and was told girl I nearly fell off the bed. I spoke to my consultant who said this sonographer never says unless she is 100% sure of gender and then 4 weeks later I had another scan on a different machine with him and looked at the potty shots and it is definitely a girl despite the appearance of my nub shot early on. Please don't give up hope of getting your girl, it is too early to tell.

What an awesome story, thank you so much for sharing! :) Your response, as well as everyone else's, is keeping my hope alive. I'm feeling a lot better about the possibility of one of these babies being a girl. Thank you so much! :)

On Monday! It's my NT scan. Hopefully I'll have better nub shots with this scan. I'm nervous!!

How Exciting !!

can't wait to see the new nub shots! GL on Monday...still think A will turn out girl, B a boy.

Thanks, auroara. Really hope you're right! :)

Best of luck and try not to stress yourself too much (easier said than done). I would be delighted and not at all surprised to hear that one of your little ones is a girl.
