This is my 12 week scan I just can’t seem to understand nub theory 😩does anyone have any guesses? Girl or boy 🫶🏼

Did anyone have any beta hcg bloods done? Could any one remember what their levels were 48 hours apart? I had mine done last weds and then in the afternoon Friday so not quite 48 hours apart but they’ve gone from 6400 to 9200, got to have more bloods again today and go from there, but has anyone else slow rising hcg?
