Baby was upside down so not sure if it makes a difference. 13 weeks exactly. What do you all think? Boy 5 or? I feel like the nub looked really long and flat at some points in the scan and even that I saw forking, but I'm not sure if what I saw was actually stacking and I just wanted it to be forking
haha
Another picture added to page 2.

looks girly to me - but could possibly still rise. FXFXFX
Pink lean from me. I think the possible stacking you see is actually a bit of cord in the way. The nub looks long and forked otherwise. FX for pink!
Looks girly! Fingers crossed
Agree with the others: girl! Stacking seems part of cord or leg, but def not the nub.
Thank you all.
Girl! Did you sway?
Not very much, after TTC 3.5 years I was at the point of giving up so didn't really put much effort in. There were a few things, but not enough to really pin my hopes on. I'd sort of said "ok, we will go to Christmas and if this is our last shot I might as well make a few changes."
I've been telling myself it's a boy to avoid getting my hopes up.
Hoping this is your little girl ��
I think girl! Crossing my fingers for you
Hey, still do an add your sway if you'd like (pretty please!). We learn far more about what actually works from the sways where people think they aren't doing much than from the really involved ones!!! FXFXFX!!Quote:

Got my scan date, 4th of December. I will update then.
I'm starting to get really nervous. I almost wish I had booked a gender scan, but at the same time I'm scared to have it confirmed if it's a boy. December seems so far away to keep going back and forth between desperately hoping and feeling like it'll be ok either way.
Is there any way to get a gender scan now??Quote:

But then again I tend to rip off bandaids, LOL
No matter what, good luck and pink dust headed your way.
Do you have anymore pics? The nub area is a bit busy
I don't know if I can really spare the £60 with Christmas coming up. We just had ds2 and ds4 birthdays this month too. I've got a couple of other pictures with the nub area showing. I wouldn't say they were any less crowded though unfortunately
And this one
Oops think that was the same one twice
I don't know why the last on won't post
Let's try one last time
Nope just not working
:DD:
I’m not sure if that’s stacking or something else so 50/50 from me. Hope it's a pink one
Thank you.
I looked into a gender scan this evening but it would appear it's fully booked for the next few weeks so wouldn't really achieve anything any way.
I had 95% girl guesses between 2 forums and Facebook, but in the last 24 hours that's dropped to 50/50 and although I kept trying to convince myself that it's a boy while hoping for a girl, seeing so many boy guesses crop up has made me realise I might not ever have a girl. I've been doing pretty well but today was just really hard, so fingers crossed tomorrow I'll feel more accepting again of the fact it could be a boy.
From the second image I am going boy. I know you want a girl (I’m the same!) so thought I’d put out there what I see - I’m not good at guessing though. Hopefully you can book in for a gender scan soon - maybe put yourself on the cancelation list? I just think you’d feel so much better knowing afer reading all the comments.

Thanks. As much as I want a girl, and the idea that I probably won't ever have one is painful, I'd rather be realistic than have false hope. Obviously I'm still hoping a bunch of other people come in and say girl haha I do feel a bit more accepting of the fact it's most likely a boy today as much as I'm still hoping deep down.
I I can empathise with those feelings. I really do hope it is a girl for you. I could maybe not be seeing the nub in the second shot
- what I do see is raised a little. I’m not the best judge though. I hope you feel boy friendly tomorrow so you are still ready for either way - it’s such a yo yo. I do hope you can find out so that you can put your mind at rest. We haven’t tried to conceive yet but will be soon. I want to be team green as I just LOVE the birth surprise, but I’ve become realistic with myself that knowing will help come to terms with another boy prior to birth.

I originally planned to not find out, I had this idea that if I waited then I would fall in love with the baby and it wouldn't matter either way. DH is scared that I'll react badly. I had postnatal depression after ds2 (not because of his gender, and I've managed fine after the other two, but again, it's that last shot thing) so he thinks it's best to know in advance and get used to it rather than crashing once the baby is here. But he isn't really helping because he's always pointing out pink things and saying "you'll need one of those when she's here"
FWIW I personally believe it's best to find out in advance. While not super common (and you seem eminently reasonable :)) I have seen several times people think they will be ok and then in the delivery room or a few days after, are suddenly not ok. It is only partly the disappointment, it's also the comments, undoing the preparation (who among us wouldn't have a girl outfit or two just in case). When you find out, not only can you prepare yourself, but also others, and also you won't have to come home to stuff you bought with that hope in your heart.
I would have been a basket case with DS 3 if I hadn't found out.
Thank you, I don't really know many people who waited, and those one got her desired girl and the other didn't get her desired boy so I haven't really seen much to get experience from, it's helpful to have someone who has seen so many outcomes and scenarios.
Today I feel more positive. I've got about 50 boy guesses from one nub group on Facebook and although I can't say it doesn't hurt I'm not as heart broken.as I was the last 2 days. I don't think there's much chance for me with that many boy votes, but at least I'm half way prepared for having it confirmed
im 50/50 too it looks busy down there but is it cord..
ive done team green twice now and it was so nice to not think about gender during the pregnancy, preparation wise i got white baby gro's and blankets and we didnt even discuss names till after the birth when we knew what we had, both times i swayed pink but had boys.
honestly as much as i love team green if you cant stop thinking about gender or worse you cant stop daydreaming about a girl then you need to find out, daydreaming about "her" for months only to meet "him" at delivery would be a huge shock in all the wrong ways and you'd be left feeling like you'd lost "her" (hope that makes sense)
fingers crossed you can get in for a scan soon but if not i really hope you hear pink in december xx
Thank you. It's good to hear peoples experiences.
My scan is a week tomorrow. I've mostly been feeling like I just want it confirmed now so that I can move on, but ds4 has started questioning why there's so many boys in the house and wanting a baby sister and I guess I've just realised I only have one more week of dreaming and hoping left and then it's over. Now I'm all up in the air again.
Good luck!!!
Good luck! Pink dust.
