    Nub guessing - when is best ?

    Im due my 12 week scan on Jan 22nd but looking at my dates I will only be 11+5. Im aware that nubs can change slightly between then and 13 weeks and so im wondering whether its worth trying to put it back a week to nearer 12+5..... though to honest Ive not seen a nub on any of my previous scans as i think here they are careful not to show too much and its all very quick so i dont want to anxiously be waiting another week for nothing. Im a bit undecided and wondered what peoples views were - how much can change in that week ?

    Well a friend of mine heard girl on her 12 week u/s but she seemed only 11+3 then... Her obgyn told here he was right 100% of the time. on a 17 week gender scan 'she' was 100% boy.

    Hard decision, i can imagine you can't wait an extra week....

    Did you know bout nubs then? I didn't with any of mine and at the time you are focused more on the tech and whether there is a heart beat etc you may not have noticed it. I didn't look at my cvs scan as i didn't want to know in case i saw and it was wrong, but then i was getting gender results 3 days later but watching the dvd back home and it was pretty obvious but then i was in the comfort of home and had seen loads on here in weeks before

    I'd postpone it a week, I think it would make a big difference in nub guessing
    hoping for another

    I heard closer to 13 weeks is better. I'm going when I will be exactly 13 weeks.

    It's 50/50 in the 11th week but jumps up to 85-90% by the mid to late 12th week.
