| I would say boy but a friend had a simular look at her scan and it was a girl. They think it was the umbilical cord with her. |

I'm going with boy... I'm SURE I can see a shadow of a weeny sticking out lol! (Its very 'pointy' so I wouldnt think it is the cord in its place...)
ETA oops, I just saw you're only 13 weeks... in that case I'll sit on the fence... I cant tell anything at that angle (if you have a side on/profile shot that could help the guessing game more...)  ------------- Brandon - 05/12/2003

I have no idea what the nub is or looks like and this is the only profile shot i got which isn't the best. I can see a darker white line at the bum end sort of at the top or just before the legs start iygwim. Dont know if thats anything. I cant wait to find out! 
ETA I added a little red line at what i can see? (Probably nothing) But the line i saw first is that darker one above it. Who knows! -------------

Ive been googling the nub theory but im still unsure, i think that it is the nub though.. either what the red line is pointing to or the white one above it. -------------

Im usually pretty good with the nub theory,..that ones hard to tell though,but im going to go with boy.
If you are really curious you can post it on Intelligender and they have ultrasound people who will give a pretty accurate guess -------------

Boy votes are definitely the majority! We picked a boys name last night too  I personally think boy now because the nub is slightly angled up.
I read somewhere though that it makes effects the true angle of the nub if the baby is upside down? Which this one was so i rotated the picture. Does it make a difference? -------------

Ha,I didn't even notice you did that ...im not sure if it makes much difference or not.
Unfortunately your pic doesn't have much of a nub to tell,im going more with a general "vibe" than a nub theory here. "The nub theory is basically about 'the angle of the dangle'. Between 11 and 14 weeks' gestation both genders have a penis-like protuberance between the legs. They look incredibly similar at this point, except for the angle at which they are pointing. Sometimes there are males and females at this stage which are in the 'grey area', but essentially a boy's 'dangle' is 30 degrees up relative to the backbone and a girl's is below 30 degrees. If you get your scan at 11 weeks, it can be difficult to tell the difference between the genders. A scan at 12 weeks is around 75% accurate and at 13 weeks it's closer to 95% accurate. When you go in for your scan, ask your sonographer to get a shot exactly like one of the ones above- the foetus right side on, back flat not curled up and a good shot of the 'nub'." -------------

I originally thought girl from your first pic, as I can make out the "hamburger"...I think I said that earlier in the thread.
I was just having another look at your second pic, where you've added the red line....could that be a toe? (ie view is of the bottom of the foot on the right side?)... ...Anyway, you now have me wanting your anatomy scan to hurry up so you can tell us!! |
