Shall I find out the sex of my baby at my 19 week scan?

dh wants me to - we have 2 girls and, to be honest, he really really wants a boy and wants me to find out so he isn't horribly disappointed at the birth (if its another girl).

I don't care what I have (although having a boy would be easier in terms of family pressure!!)

I am hoping the baby will keep its legs crossed. I really don't want to know.

Mind you, if you start on girls names, it's bound to be a boy.

I know a Romilly too but no, you can't do it if there's an ex with the name.

Tinker · 25/11/2005 11:56

Derivatives of Elizabeth are lovely (as is teh full name)

dinosaur · 25/11/2005 11:58

Nooooooooo - not Wilf!

Boys' names I didn't use:

Alexander (quite a lot of them around, but I still like it)
Leo (no good as DH's surname begins with an "L"
Lucas (ditto - my brother's nipper is called Lucas)

Enid · 25/11/2005 11:59

yes elizabeth very swank with my surname

OP posts:
Tinker · 25/11/2005 11:59

Wilf is weak. Also the name of our gerbil.
