I think he wanted to witness a very happy mama! But, I think he then realized he needed to be vague. I think techs should not make any commentary at all if they are requested to keep gender a secret. I would totally read into it also, but....if it is driving you nuts and you can't deal....maybe just call the office and ask them? They probably record the gender in your file. And the nub does look girlie to me also. GL!
