Hey guys, this is the u/s pic from my first u/s at 8w4d. It looks like a blob to me lol but I was wondering if anyone can make sense of it enough to guess the gender based on the Ramzi theory/method?
P S - if you can make sense of this pic, you must be some kind of wizard or something because I don’t see ANYTHING! Lol

It's a blob, you think it's a blob, I think it's a blob, so do most.
Congrats, as I'm 100% sure it's a baby; 50% sure it's a girl; 50%its a boy.
Have some patience and wait for the anatomy scan and you may find out more accurately than a guess.

Lmao you guys suck but thanks for the laugh I guess
I don't see how you can justify that response.... Your guess is as good as ours, none of us are US techs/radiologists so we all see the same as you, a blob. Ramzi theory is just that...theory.
If you cannot possibly wait the next 12wks to find out, have blood tests done. Otherwise, you'll get a good guess from your tech at 20wks
I’m an ultrasound tech so I can make sense of the pic (though it’s not a very good one, sorry) but Ramzi is stupid because you can’t tell where in the uterus the embryo is implanted from one pic. I’d need to sweep your uterus myself to see if it was to the left or right.
Are you eligible to do NIPT? You’ll either find out in 4ish weeks or 12.
ETA: position in the uterus also means nothing about baby’s sex.
Hi, congrats! It looks like it would be a boy if the Ramzi method is at all accurate. I would do the Chinese gender calendar over that. I double checked it with my previous babies and everyone that is preg. That I know and that know the gender already & it seems accurate!

Weird because I keep getting boy, girl, boy, girl, boy, girl depending on which chart I look at (yes, I'm ashamed to admit that I've looked at a couple of them). Super accurate, homie. Great scientific research! #sarcasm
Of all the pregnancy message boards I’ve visited since becoming pregnant, the bump is definitely the rudest and snarkiest 🙄. Definitely not very warm and welcoming here. I think it’s fun for some first time parents to guess but we are just so excited. Goodluck with your pregnancy mama!
@babysocialworker, most people on the bump rely on factual science information to determine the sex of the child, most see that gender =/= sex, and most dont get all hyped over unproven ways of determining vcd the sex of the child. So yes, Ramzi, Chineese "gender" chart, and other silly ways of determining the sex is eye rolled, when expecting mothers can have patience and learn the sex of the kiddo via blood work, ultrasound, or even being team green!
