Just had 20 week scan...

Wait.

It's the one thing in life you can genuinely be surprised at. Please give your DH this simple gift. It's not long to wait.

Ah too late. Should have scrolled down further. 😕

So glad you opened the envelope! It's still a surprise whenever you find out, there's no harm in wanting your surprise earlier. I found out with DS and I'm so glad I did because I passed out from blood loss not long after giving birth so I wouldn't have even remembered finding out that he was a boy, where as I really got to enjoy finding out my scan!

Really?

Yeah ridiculous comment, there are obviously a lot of surprising things in life and as I said above it's still a surprise whenever you find out. Don't get me started on Please give your DH this simple gift. Squeezing a child out of your vagina is gift enough!!!!!

Mouse that's fair enough but he opened the bloody envelope lol I said I wasn't having it put on me, it had to be his decision seeing as he already knew I wanted to know lol.

I do feel slightly more bonded with him now as it goes, even if it's just something small like being able to call him him instead of it!

No one else knows yet, they still think we're strong & have resisted Grin

This is a genius idea dh and I have been having the same debate!! I'm going to suggest we do an envelope. I'd totally sneak a peak tho!!
