So here is my 12 week scan:

I already have 2 boys and would love a girl....but of course still be grateful for a healthy boy as well! I have been trying to figure out the "angle of the dangle" and it seems like the LO is in between. Then I look at the tip and it looks like its forked but off to the side, which makes me think its NOT part of the nub! What do you ladies think????:shrug:

Thanks in advance!!!:happydance:
 
Looks boyish to me hun :flower:

ETA: but, That may be the angle of the babys bum, If it was straight instead of slightly curved, would the nub be straighter? i dont know, the fork is nice and clear, so could swing either way x x
 
Thanks Lucy! Yeah I am leaning towards boy as well. The only thing that throws me off is the fork and with DS2 his nub was straight up. Plus I feel soooooo sick this time and never had that with my 2 boys. I am probably grasping at straws because deep down I truly think another boy...o well less clothes to buy lol.
 
12 wks is still early and it seems to have a mushroom type end a little bit of an angle. I say boy.
 
LOL I see everyone on here is split too!!!! I think the problem is that the nub is in the middle (go figure). Yes nub is pretty flat and straight but the thing on top throws me off!!
 
Try ingender, you can compare pics on there and there is also u/s techs
 
Thanks Jo Jo! I did and they were all split 50/50 ha ha. I guess I have to resign myself to waiting til December 11th to find out :/.
 
I'd say boy,looks exactly like my scan pic (nub and skull) and im having a lil boy :blue:
 
Thanks! Hoping for pink but God may have other plans for our family ;-). Good luck to you ladies!
 
Thanks Miley! You're giving me hope! It's crazy bc in other scan pics I have it looks totally straight and flat for some reason this one looks elevated. I wonder if it depends on the sonogram machine?
 
Thanks Becy! Just out of curiosity what makes you think boy? I'll be happy as long as baby is healthy just would love to have the girl experience too;-)

Thanks ILoveYou, do you have a preference on gender? I see you have two adorable boys as well:-)
 
I can't really see a nub and im not good with nub's anyway
:dohh: im still trying to figure it out!
but the skull looks boyish to me .. looks alot like my 12 week scan with
my DS, im no expert! so i probably am wrong :lol:
