Should I find out the sex of DC3 - Mumsnet, you decide...

I found out with DD1, didn't with DD2. I liked the fact that I felt more bonded during pregnancy to DD1 as I knew she was a girl, she felt like a "person" ifkwim. With DD2, I wanted the surprise.

I have absolutely no preference for a boy or a girl but think it would be nice for DD1 especially if we knew what we were having this time around.

Should I keep it a lovely surprise or find out?

We used to live about 10 mins drive away Fio, I really miss the tranquility and hills of Wales. Used to take DD1 to see Thomas the Tank engine at the railway station there. She loved it!

glad your scan was ok

i found out with both of mine, my sister wanted to with her DS, but he had his legs crossed at all the scans she had, so she had a surprise in the end.

Thanks Lulumama, asked DH if I could have a home birth, he just laughed! Oh well!

FioFio, I live in Southport now. Shropshire is a lovely place, we lived virtually on the border of Wales/Shropshire. There is nice little town called Ellesmere which has a fantastic lake.

I am from Liverpool originally, whereabouts did your Great Grandad live? I had my ears pierced in Owen Owens in Liverpool when I was around 12, it is funny the things you remember!

I do like Southport as it is nearer to my family and friends, Wales was nice but not a lot going on there.

I am having my scan on 15 September so hopefully will know then.
