How am I guna keep this a secret???

[Jenjen85]

So today we had our 20wk scan and found out the sex however certain family members (MIL) expressed their view on not wanting to find out. How the hell am I guna keep this a secret for another 20weeks has anyone done similar to us and found out but not told anyone?

We found out and haven't told anyone... We're now 31 weeks and a lot of people think we didn't want to find out. It's been hard not to let it slip but also exciting to have a secret

I found out and only 2 other people know everyone else thinks we have no clue lol I'm now nearly 30 weeks

Don't stress yourself about it. Your baby, you wanted to know, nor really her place to dictate. Apologise if it gets out by accident but she can't really get angry about it.

Hoping I can keep it secret as I'm so excited. Very true peppa we've had a falling out so I'm tempted to let it slip "by accident" just to piss her off

Agree with Peppa, it's totally up to you and it would be very childish of your MIL to cause a fuss if she found out! If you're concerned though, I'd tell her that as she doesn't want to know you're going to sometimes refer to the baby as 'she' and sometimes as 'he', then she won't know if you've slipped up.

I know and my husband (or anyone else) doesn't...did this for our first as well! It worked fine...he likes surprises and I was keen to find out! Just give it a nickname to refer to it by so you avoid the whole he/she thing!

Simples. Don't see or speak to MIL until the baby is born. Win win....

we knew, and didn't tell anyone.
It was actually nice having that secret between us.

But White, what did you do about buying clothes? I don't mean blue or pink but there are some baby grows that are more masculine or feminine in their design.
