Subject : Nub gender theory

Hi ladies i hope that you are all well!

I've just stumbled upon this, and thought that you may find it interesting. It is basically saying that from a side view of your baby's genitals (the nub) you can tell from your 12 week scan whether it is a boy or girl, based on the angle of the nub (So don't look at this website if you don't want to know!!). Up until reading this i've been thinking that i was carrying a girl, but my scan photo would suggest that it's another little boy (i think)!! What do you reckon I am having?? i.e. is the nub above (boy) or below (girl) a 30 degree angle to the spine??

Oh my god, just looked at our scan photos and if I am looking at the right thing, its a girl !! Its definitely straight across not upwards.... wonder if there is any truth in this.

Guess I will find out on the 18th Nov, anyone else checked their scan yet?

How fun, but grr - I can't tell, can see what I think is the nub, but its not horizontal and not that angled either! Dont' think it helps that baby is lying the wrong way around - ah well, it keeps our surprise secret! xx

Well mine looks like a girl form my scan pics. I have a feeling it's a boy though. I'm not finding out either. Will be very interesting to see if it's right for those finding out at 20 weeks!

ooooooh thank you very much 1boy1girlnbeanie, how did you manage to get my scan photo to work???? For a moment I thought you had an identical scan photo to me (they are quite similar)... ha ha.
I'm also pleased that you think it could possibly be a girly... It is a close call because of the curved spine, but I thought it looked like another little boy, and have been 'preparing' myself ever since reading this webpage as I would secretly love a girl (Im ashamed to admit this as healthy is what is important!) I also think your little beanie is a girl. what does anyone else think??

It's really hard to tell isn't it?! I can only make out the nub on one of my scan pics (which are from around 11-12 weeks which is a bit less accurate according to the article) and it looks quite similar to yours 1boy1girlnbeanie. I think it looks girlie but the spine is quite curved. It is forked though which may mean girlie?? Hope so - I'm just like you mummylonglegs - I know healthy is important but can't help thinking pink!!!
