Who's finding out the sex?

in My baby was born in Feb 2013

Just wondered? We were going to, but have now decided to keep it as a surprise. I do think it is harder though to find nice neutral things, particularly when it comes to nursery decor.  x

    We were going to find out but I've read so many posts on here with people saying how amazing it is when it's a surprise that we've changed our minds.

    Hubby would have preferred a surprise anyway but was happy to find out if that's what I wanted. My family aren't too pleased, they are dying to know but it's our decision. xx

    I wasn't going to but now I have started looking for baby things I have realised that all my favourite nursery things are gender specific so I'm planning on finding out. Since deciding I want to know I have become more impatient and have booked a gender scan for this Saturday.image I had my 16 week appointment with the midwife today and heard the heartbeat really clearly. I really want to be able to think of the baby as 'our son' or 'our daughter' now. xXx

    It's going to be soooo hard waiting. I gave in and bought my first two items today: a Winnie The Pooh sleeping bag and matching sleepsuit. They are so cute! I'm going for 16 week appointment tomorrow and hoping I will be able to listen to heartbeat. x

    We're not this time but we did first time and I can honestly say that the birth was no less special because we knew she was a girl. We just had our lovely 'it's a girl' moment a few months earlier!



    The reason for not finding out this time is because my last labour was induced, I felt really robbed of the whole 'ooh my waters have gone!' or 'is it time?!' experience (sounds stupid I know) but I'm worried that I will develop PE again and have to be induced or have a section so I want one last surprise just in case

    We are this time - can't wait! It's a practical thing partly this time so we know whether we're saving money on pink things or splurging on blue, lol!!

    We didn't find out with DD and it was amazing when she was born to have hubby tell me (altho he got very confused too and needed prompting!!). Well worth the wait image

    I loved not knowing last time. It was great fun to speculate and guess and then to see for myself was just amazing. This time however we Will if we can. Just because i think it will be easier for dd to get used to idea.

    I still can't decide! My hubby wants to know so we might find out and keep it to ourselves. I heard about someone where they got it wrong!
