The Nub Theory

Well, many of you have probably seen this already but I thought it was interesting. The Nub Theory basically says that you can determine gender as early as 12 weeks by measuring the angle of the "nub".

Re: The Nub Theory

My tech guessed girl at 11 weeks 1 day based on this - she called it the sagital notch, she was right!

Re: The Nub Theory

Don't know how she knew but our tech guessed correctly at 11 weeks 4 days. Every sono since has clearly confirmed that he is a boy! He's not shy Chat Icon

Re: The Nub Theory

Yay! how fun? Well, there r a lot more pics if u follow the link in the article to compare it to but just judging by the two examples in the original article I think I would guess boy... The angle looks a lot like the author's boy sono.

You have to careful that the spine is not curved. DS's nub looked girly in the shot I had of him because his spine was curled.
