Yes, a rising nub can be a girl. In early pregnancy ultrasounds, the 'nub theory' suggests that the angle of the genital tubercle or nub can indicate gender. A rising or upwards-angled nub typically suggests a boy, while a flat or downwards-angled nub often indicates a girl. However, this method is not foolproof and should not replace medical advice.
