Gender Guesses Please!

First pic was taken at 12w6d at the NT scan (where baby wouldn't cooperate and get in a good position to measure the nuchal fold), and the 2nd one was taken just yesterday at 13w2d (where Squirmy thankfully cooperated). I know the 2nd one doesn't show all of baby, but maybe base that one off of skull theory? I don't know. This is my first so I have no idea! Everyone around me says boy except for a couple of folks. What do you think?

I'll guess , but I'm not too good at this. The 2nd picture is adorable btw!

I can't make out the nub but congrats!

Haha thanks! Ugh sorry I thought the one I was uploading was the right one, but it's not. I have a better nub pic...here it is!

Oh, now I don't know. Maybe ? Hard to tell with baby not stretched out. Do you have a gut feeling? Have you tried any wives' tales? (I have a link in my signature if you want to try a few)

See my mom saw that pic and thought boy too, but then thought it could just be the cord. Hard to tell.

I've thought boy for awhile now. If we go by wive's tales, it would fit. I had terrible aversions to sweets for weeks, and now I just prefer spicy/salty/savory things, though occasionally I eat sweets now that I can though I don't crave them.

I just saw we are due on the same day! With my son (last pregnancy), I craved bar food like jalapeno poppers and nachos and even beer (though I didn't indulge). I knew for sure it had to be a boy! This one is all sweet stuff. I can't get enough. I wish I had a gut feeling, but I don't this time. According to the wives' tale stuff (which has no scientific backing and is just for fun), I'm leaning heavily for a girl. I guess we'll know soon. When is your anatomy scan? Mine is the 16th of Feb.

Wow we are! Cool!

Yes old wives' tales aren't the most reliable, but it is fun to play with. I am hoping for a girl, but I will be happy with either. Actually had a dream last night that baby was a girl!

My anatomy scan isn't officially scheduled yet, but I'm guessing it will be around Feb 17th or maybe the week after. I don't know, depends on my Dr. My next appt. is the 15th where we go over my blood results, NT scan stuff, and we listen to the heartbeat again. I am getting another scan at 18 weeks to check my cervix length. I'm sure we will be able to determine gender then. Here's to hoping!
