Re: anyone familiar with the nub theory ?

  • i've read about the nub theory, but didn't have the actual good ultrasound photo of those parts to really do the investigation :) in the end, I resigned myself to knowing i'll know in 4 weeks or so!

  • There's a website with a forum dedicated to nub theory guessing, even with nubs that ended up being confirmed girls or boys. I think it's called ingender.com? You'd have to google it. My guess is girl because of it being parallel to the spine and forked at the end, but nub theory isn't always right as boys can have the fork too. It's fun to guess but I wouldn't start painting the nursery just yet.

    Also, only reason I made a guess is because this nub is so clearly defined. Way too many people ask for a *guess* when you can't even tell what's a nub and what's an umbilical cord/foot/anything else.
  • yeah I understand I thought girl too :)
  • I figure the nub theory is just another "fun" way to pass the time :smiley: Don't count on its accuracy but its cool to see if it was "correct" for you too!  I don't put more stock in it than any old myth either, like chinese gender charts :smiley: 
    If I was guessing for fun I would guess girl.

  • Looks like a girl to me!
  • I would say girl too.  Looks like it's parallel with the spine. This is a really clear shot, how many weeks were you? Keep us updated! 
  • Wouldn't the ultrasound have to be at a different angle.  You can't see anything from a profile.  Everything is behind their leg...

    Haha the snark is strong with this one:) As mentioned in a previous post check out ingender.com.  It is much more guess friendly and has several ultrasound techs that can give you a professional opinion as well.
