It's definitely not always reliable. Congratulations on your sweet baby boy!!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nub-guess-1#post-2220252 Fri, 26 Jun 2015 23:26:46 +0000 travellingbee 2220252@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BandDmommy: It's a boy! But I found another shot that shows the nub better and it looks all boy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nub-guess-1#post-2220248 Fri, 26 Jun 2015 23:01:49 +0000 maybebaby 2220248@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our tech guessed girl based off nub at 12 weeks, confirmed at elective u/s at 15 weeks. When will you get results?! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nub-guess-1#post-2220178 Fri, 26 Jun 2015 20:24:18 +0000 catomd00 2220178@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nub theory was accurate for us - girl! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nub-guess-1#post-2220089 Fri, 26 Jun 2015 17:45:39 +0000 BandDmommy 2220089@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Was the nub theory right? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nub-guess-1#post-2217338 Wed, 24 Jun 2015 14:09:04 +0000 travellingbee 2217338@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@getjazzy: Thanks. yeah, I wish she had taken a better shot of that area. About there not being anything there except a nub, I know that is what is generally said but with my son, we got a shot of his stuff at 12+3 that was undeniable. All the goods and everyone including tech and pediatrician said, yup, that's a boy. So I don't know. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nub-guess-1#post-2217332 Wed, 24 Jun 2015 14:02:48 +0000 getjazzy 2217332@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@travellingbee: There would be no boy parts to be seen at 12 weeks, so that part doesn't make sense. At this point, there is only the nub. From what I can see it looks kind of girly, but it does look like it could possibly have a little bit of a boyish lift at the end, but I can't be sure because it's cut off. Hard to tell! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nub-guess-1#post-2217328 Wed, 24 Jun 2015 13:57:50 +0000 travellingbee 2217328@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@getjazzy: No, nothing that shows that area better, but she pointed out the nub and how it was not at an angle to the back (or something like that), so that indicated it was likely a girl. When the baby flipped over the other way, she thought she might have seen some boy parts so she became unsure, but laying down like in this picture, the nub was definitely pointing forward not up at an angle. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nub-guess-1#post-2217323 Wed, 24 Jun 2015 13:55:37 +0000 Foodnerd81 2217323@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My tech guessed girl at the 12 week scan but was only about 70% sure- compared to 50 for a wild guess. I'll find out at the end of July if she was right. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nub-guess-1#post-2217320 Wed, 24 Jun 2015 13:54:40 +0000 getjazzy 2217320@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@travellingbee: I guessed both of my babies correctly based on their nubs, as well as a few friends babies. Do you have a further zoomed out picture? The nub area is a little cut off on yours. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nub-guess-1#post-2217317 Wed, 24 Jun 2015 13:46:29 +0000 LAZB 2217317@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When I went for my NT scan the sonographer changed her mind too! The nub looked girl, and then boy, and then girl again. I don't remember what I thought about the nub, but I had always felt L was going to be a girl, even before she was conceived lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nub-guess-1#post-2217300 Wed, 24 Jun 2015 13:32:52 +0000 kodybear 2217300@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>mine was right for my girl (at 12.5 weeks)! i didn't see a nub for my second. i think its pretty accurate as long as you're sure its the nub and its sometime between 12-14 weeks. in your pic the nub looks like it gets cut off by the picture, but if its going in the direction i think it is then i'd guess girl! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nub-guess-1#post-2217299 Wed, 24 Jun 2015 13:32:48 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 2217299@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My tech gave me an 80% accuracy of guessing boy at the 12 week scan, and she was correct... but I was still too doubtful to say anything until 18 weeks when it was confirmed. </p> <p>I know someone whose tech got it wrong at 12 weeks though! And she had already told people, so she had to go back and tell everyone, "nevermind! It's actually another girl!" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nub-guess-1#post-2217293 Wed, 24 Jun 2015 13:29:10 +0000 travellingbee 2217293@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ladybee: Mine was called InformaSeq. I am high risk because of age, but my doctor offers it to everyone I think. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nub-guess-1#post-2217291 Wed, 24 Jun 2015 13:28:44 +0000 raspberries 2217291@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ladybee: We had the Panorama prenatal screening done (<a href="http://www.panoramatest.com/en/expecting-mother" rel="nofollow">http://www.panoramatest.com/en/expecting-mother</a>), mainly because our insurance covered it regardless of mother's age/risk factors. I understand it can be as much as a couple thousand if it's not covered though? Definitely look into the price/insurance coverage beforehand so you're not in shock after it's done! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nub-guess-1#post-2217286 Wed, 24 Jun 2015 13:26:38 +0000 travellingbee 2217286@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@CatchAFallingStar: Interesting. My US tech seemed to think that it was pretty reliable but she did say that sometimes when it looks down like a girl, it is just a relaxed boy. ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nub-guess-1#post-2217285 Wed, 24 Jun 2015 13:25:49 +0000 ladybee 2217285@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@raspberries: @travellingbee: what blood test? Is it because of maternal age? I'm thinking of paying out of pocket for one. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nub-guess-1#post-2217274 Wed, 24 Jun 2015 13:17:30 +0000 raspberries 2217274@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My ultrasound tech didn't hazard a guess at the NT scan, and none of the screen shots I took home with me were super clear - but I also found out during a blood test, and it was confirmed at my next ultrasound. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nub-guess-1#post-2217271 Wed, 24 Jun 2015 13:15:27 +0000 CatchAFallingStar 2217271@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I, honestly, don't think you can tell based on the nub. I think it's just a guess. But you'll know soon with your DNA test. https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nub-guess-1#post-2217259 Wed, 24 Jun 2015 13:06:50 +0000 travellingbee 2217259@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Anyone? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nub-guess-1#post-2217162 Wed, 24 Jun 2015 11:27:42 +0000 travellingbee 2217162@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So at my NT today (12W2D) the US tech told me her guess on gender and then retracted it because she wasn't sure as it started moving around. She said the nub looked girl but then she thought she might have seen boy parts as baby was squirming. Anyone's nub guess not end up being right? I had a blood test so I should know soon, but I am just curious.</p> <p>[attach=3175/15/nqgj26.531x600.FullSizeRender.jpg] </p>
