if you didn't find out the sex of baby no1

[chasingtherainbow]

Did you find out with no2?

I absolutely loved not knowing with dd but this pregnancy is harder on me emotionally and dd will be four shortly before baby is born and is desperate to be heavily involved. I've a strong feeling that I actually want to know this time, but worry I'll regret it. This is our last baby and the surprise was so special as dh told me when dd wss born that I'll feel I ruined my last chance to have that surprise if you see what I mean.

I realise this is a bit silly. Humour me.. I've enough to actually worry about! Did you find out? Did you like knowing .. how was it in comparison?

Abbey that's why we've stuck with neutral despite being told it's a girl, you never know!

I've heard that's the direction they get it wrong, although very rarely of course. If they see a boy, they've seen it

I didn't find out with dd and haven't found out this time. I'm 30 weeks. Dd is really excited (sort of!) just to be getting a baby that will apparently be called Peppa regardless of sex...I think surprises are lovely and if you enjoyed it last time then I'm sure you will again

One of my close friends was told boy and had a girl which happens much less!

Youmakemyheartsmile - if it's not the surprise of the century, why not just wait then?! It's only 6 months at best. I know the outcome is only one of two options but still.....

Yesterday my sister announced the name they've chosen ...

So I now know the sex, date of birth (schedule csec) and name! And I realised that while yes I'm still really excited for the impending arrival I love the mystery so much more.

So I will contain myself. We will have a surprise!

Like I said, I waited the first time and it was lovely. I've found out the second time and it's also lovely. Can't say I've preferred one approach over the other, having a baby is the exciting part!
