Gender clues at 11,4 weeks? Update: It's a...!

Not my u/s, but my sisters. I know it's a little early and the baby doesn't seem to be straight for a good nub shot. I did see a flat forked nub during the u/s and I think the skull looks girly as well. We will know in one week, but in the meantime would love your guesses!

That gestation is just too early for any kind of accurate guess!

[Dana-Alicia]

Yeah I know. She was 12 weeks at the time, baby just measured a bit smaller. But guess we have to be patient a little longer Any skull theories though? Boy or girl skull shape?

[Dana-Alicia]

No guesses?

Had the exactly same kind of picture whenj had my 10 week scan and at the time I was in denial as I feared it was a clear upward boy nub....turns out I was right. So I would lean very strong boy. No mistaking it....the say you cannot tell at that gestation but with some children you just can theirs is upright quite early on....

Don't want to sound insensitive......just trying to be honest but if I see a scan like this again this time round I will be convinced it's another boy for myself.....hope I am wrong if that is not what you preference is..

Yes, I also think this pic the nub looks boyish, no def after seeing your nubpic. i wish I could post the video, it shows a clear flat forked nub. But after seeing this pic I started to doubt. It's too early, I know, but it's fun nubsessing, especially since it's not my baby and I don't really have a preference for my first niece of nephew. I do have a strong girl feeling from the start and after her lifestyle/diet a boy seems almost impossible. But who knows! Will def post once we know the gender, so thanks!

I just want to chime in here and say it really IS impossible to tell at this stage because babies follow a timeline of development that is based on certain things developing at a certain pace and in a particular order due to instructions from the genome that control cell growth and hormones. It's tightly ordered because if it wasn't, if babies just grew whatever, whenever, then they'd grow parts in the wrong place or a baby would have something growing out of all proportion to its body (like a fully grown willy on a tiny baby). Genetic differences in sizes don't happen at this gestation, it's only once all the bits are made that the variation creeps in.

Yes, there are people whose baby looks like it has a peeper at a very early stage and turn out to be boys, there are others who look like they have VJ's who turn out to be girls, and then there are opposites going both ways. it's just that people only remember the ones that are right, KWIM??
