The pictures are unfortunately rather fuzzy and I cannot see the inside of the slit, which at that age can be more gender divisive.
Have a look at our reference pictures in this link here: Sexing Babies (with pictures)
There is a hands-on test you can do yourself, which we always do with our own piggies but cannot do remotely. It is always the gender clincher.
First feel the mum just above her knob on the belly side; she should be nice and soft. Then try the baby. If it is a boy, you can feel something hard, like an uncooked small basmati rice corn just under the skin (it's the penis shaft). It is very distinctive. If you can't feel that little hard rice corn, then you have a girl.
Here is where you feel for it:
