Is this a nub? Identical Twins!
Hi everyone, just wondering if it's possible to see a nub on this image which was taken at 11w6d (although babies were measuring 13 weeks) unfortunately this is the only image I have as I've had to go through the hospital due to some health concerns so I'm not sure if anything is visible at all. I was swaying girl last year then decided I was done with babies only to get pregnant (first surprise) and found out it was identical twins (second very big surprise!). We won't be finding out gender til birth although I really want to know, I think they're boys and this is a boyish nub but I'm terrible at this so just hoping someone can have a look! Thank you!

I don’t see any nubs and 3D/4D pics are notorious for adding all sorts of extra lumps and bumps everywhere, so I wouldn’t want to try guessing.

Yep just as Bunnygirl said, there is no way to tell gender from these shots. I see the thing that (I think) you're assuming is a boy nub, but that would be a penis out of all proportion LOL and the baby's bottom would be dangling down by their knees. I think we're seeing placenta and cord taht are confusing the issue. The other baby has a shadow there but again, that would be testicles the size of grapefruit when it was born, and you can see similar shadows up at the heads of the babies.
We don't use 3d/4d ultrasounds for guessing gender because it's just too easy to mix up echoes with real artifacts.
nothing on here indicates gender to me. Gorgeous babies tho!
ID twin boys are the rarest of all twins, so no matter if boys or girls, you're getting something enormously special!

My husband said something similar as he thinks I'm crazy for seeing anything at all (his exact words were something along the lines of, if that's what you think it is these kids would go into the Guinness book of world records haha)
I guess we will have to wait another 5-6 months to find out, it is so hard waiting but will be nice to have a surprise for the first time! It still feels very surreal and we've already been through so much stress with Twin B having a thickened nuchal fold so have been testing for lots of things and still investigating the cause so at this point I am just hoping they are both healthy and happy and I honestly am ok with either gender because these health scares have thrown everything into perspective. I will update once they're born (and will add my 'sway' shortly although I wasn't doing much!) so thank you both for having a look at my babies

EXACTLY! Ha ha, that's hilarious. But yes!
Huge congrats and I'm hoping for a good update soon (so many people hear a thickened nuchal fold that then resolves itself!)
Atomic, this may sound crazy but I’ve been reading about moon phases… I have a ‘red moon cycle’ currently which I didn’t used to have. Meaning my period is coinciding with the full moon. From...
