Reluctant nubsessing begins LOL

[Emily]

Based on first pic I'd totally guess girl. I wouldn't hazard a guess on the second pic as I don't really know what I'm looking at.

As for the tech guessing, I'd say her votes got to count for many of ours - particularly as she will have seen it lots, including it being in the optimal position which I suppose can happen to fast to snap a pic of. That being said I also asked my tech if she knew about the nub theory, she was like 'the what?' I said it was to do with the position of the genital tube and gender of the baby, she said nothing and moved down there, I was like 'oh its a boy' and she said (very calmly) 'I would have said girl' but said nothing more on the matter... They don't like to predict early here as people abort based on gender. So I don't know if she did know the theory but not by that name or if she didn't but just happened to think girl. Long story!! But I think the fact you can say with certainty that your tech did know the theory and guessed girl is pretty cool!!

As for the spine, I thought the idea was to use the angle of the bottom of the spine as your guide for comparing the angle of the nub?

She was a super cool tech - very young and had all the time in the world to explain things to us. She obviously knew from my age that I would be worried about the scan so took a good while explaining how awesome my little ones figures are. When she heard that I had two boys she went back over the bub in a few different angles and said yep, girl - at this stage. That is what is making me question the tiny tilt. She said that it could easily change.

Docs here are usually colder but very professional. The last one barely spoke to me during DS2s scan.

Sounds pretty positive to me! The one thing you can be sure of is its not definitely a boy!! So if things can change and that's the way you want to see it then you are only in the same position as you were before the scan.

I'm hopeful for you though that this is your girl, think you've got a great chance!!

Thanks tree.

That looks pretty girly to me! I also think your tech sounds fantastic! Crossing my fingers and toes for you that we are all right!

I think if the tech was pretty confident you have a decent shot! I'd have like a 65/35 percentage for it being a girl so that you won't be totally bummed if it turns out boy, but you probably have a better shot at it being girl. Ah, these things are so hard... too many people recently have had all girl guesses and get a boy so that why I didn't want a nub shot because I knew I'd OBSESS too!! lol! Good luck.. I think you have a great shot at this being your DD

I'm leaning pink, but it is on the early side to say for sure, of course.

i think girl. First pic looks girly, second pic I thought maybe a little boyish but when I zoomed in on it, it looked girly too.
