How accurate is the nub theory?

The nub is very clear on my 12 week scan and everyone has guessed one gender. I don’t want to get my hopes up so just want to see how accurate everyone thinks that might be? Has anyone ever heard of the nub theory being wrong?

They guessed that I was having a girl in my last pregnancy and they were right. It depends on when your scan was as to how accurate around 11-12 weeks they are about 30% accurate, 12-13 weeks about 80% accurate and 13+ weeks it’s about 97% accurate.

Also depends who you’ve asked to to the nub theory. Some people just guess who don’t know how to do the nub theory so that can be wrong but if they have been trained it’s most likely true xx

Mine was wrong, I sent it to nub tech and they said 90% chance a girl and it's a boy 😂

Anxiety with the bump.

I’m 36 weeks pregnant and I’ve suddenly developed a massive anxiety around anyone standing behind me. My husband is annoying me so much because even though I’ve told him how it makes me feel, he’s continued doing stuff in our kitchen (that is tiny anyway) and sliding past me to grab things. I know the baby is safe even if I were to bump the bump a little but even the thought of it is still making extremely anxious. How do I cope with this feeling and is anyone else going through the same sort of thing?

Breathless and feeling like I need to be sitting constantly!

Has anyone else been feeling this way as they're getting closer to their due date?

I attempted to change our bedding this evening and had to call my husband for back up as I literally felt like my lungs were going to explode just trying to reach over to put the sheet on.

I'm huffing and puffing just getting my toddler into his pjs, and I was sat down! Like what is going on 😮‍💨🥲

Everything has been check ie bloods etc so I think it's just general pregnancy as I'm now 38 weeks. My bump feels like it weighs about 100lbs 😭
