We are having a boy! We each have a girl already so our 1st one together and it's a boy. My husband is very excited (as am I) we sprayed each with (safe) paint to find out what we were having. It was super fun!er with
Driving up to see DH. I pulled out the jack and I'm going to ask him to grab the spare tire and surprise him. Edit* So I drive up there. DH is a car guy and I knew he'd be all let me look at he tire.. I had to be a huge ass to get him to look in the trunk! I was like YOU THINK I CAN'T TELL WHEN I'VE GOT A HUGE CHUNK OF METAL IN MY TIRE??? YOU THINK I'M STUPID??? While trying not to laugh at him. Poor guy. He was so surprised it was wonderful.
We found out this afternoon we are having a sweet little boy! We are in shock. This is our third and final baby and we have two girls already. We honestly believed that all we made were girls!!!!! Cannot wait to meet this little guy. So many new emotions!!!
I had an early anatomy scan yesterday and we are having one of each!! Its so exciting! I can't wait to pick out girlie things and boy things for the registry
I'm having a boy! I had a feeling I was having a girl, but my little monkey showed that he was a boy! I think I am going to make blur frosted cupcakes!
Well... it's a girl (if our NIPT results are accurate) I am completely shocked. DH is stoked. Gonna spend the evening eating cupcakes and processing my emotions. Here's DS playing with the confetti... I can't even!
Ahhh, I hadn't checked this thread in awhile, congrats ladies! All the feels! @dmbfan46835@Nxy@DDRGirlie Congrats on one of each, mamas! Lauren, I can't believe I missed the pink confetti when you texted that pic to me! I was thinking because Judah was in blue, he was getting a little bro! @middy411 Your DD is so adorable! @nxy I love your reveal idea & lol'ed at your post.
Awwww! Thank you @mrsmatt1212 and @pinkprincesspiper! I'm still in shock! DH has been so sweet and said baby girl is going to fix my broken heart and he is so ecstatic. Didn't expect his reaction at all! Thanks for the love ladies!!
We announced by taking a photo of DH & my wedding shoes, my 2yo son's shoes, and the upcoming baby girl's shoes at our neighborhood playground! My son kept playing with the baby girl's shoes wondering why it was different than his hahaha.
My little guy is so excited to finally get the baby's sister he's been asking for. We had our early gender scan this morning and I couldn't believe what I saw. My husband is still kind of in shock I think but I think that's to be expected to a degree. Either way, we know we are so lucky. I've been feeling really nervous lately about the possibility of having a girl but I'm very hopeful. So hopeful in fact, I've decided to name her Hope.
@dmbfan46835 ah!!! We are BOTH having girls!! So excited for you. Your little guy looks so happy. Sending you. If hugs from Texas!
Omg! I'm glad you are doing so well with it! So crazy! We were both so afraid of girls, and now it's a blessing the more I think about it. We can work thru our personal mom shit. Congrats mama, your son looks so sweet!
@secicc12 Thank you! My grandmother's name is Esperanza which means hope in Spanish. I'm so glad o be able to honor such a wonderful, loving woman who has really shaped my life for the better.
@dmbfan46835 I agree! Thank you! We have the chance to heal our hearts.
We found out Saturday that we're team blue! We did an elective U/S that enabled us all (DH and DS) to find out together. It was so sweet hearing my 3 year old tell his daddy that he could see the baby in mommy's tummy on the tv. We just did a joint text message to family with the news
Holy shit, according to panorama I'm having a boy. Completely in shock as I just never saw myself with a son. But looks like life just sometimes gives you something unexpected!
It's going to take me forever to decide on a name.
A boy!!!

Clearly we like to rush along at lightning speed...
My anatomy scan is tomorrow! I was a former team green person... Now I said to heck with it! Lol Cant wait to find out and see our baby tomorrow!!!
Question though.... For those who aren't doing a party.... How did you tell your parents? Text? Phone call? Tell them in person?? I have to go into work later that day after my appointment and I just want to scream the news to family when I find out. I am very excited!
@anokoch , my friend just found out and to tell family they sent two pictures through text - one of them blowing up two balloons (pink & blue) and a second picture with the correct sex blown up and the other ballon deflated. I thought it was a cute way to tell people right away!
@anokoch we find out Friday, and my parents and DHs parents are coming over the next Friday and I'm doing a reveal with cupcakes. I'll bake them myself and the surprise will be for them. I'm going to send my sister and bil a cute aunt/uncle mug and put something in it to indicate boy/girl.

Mommy to a super cute havanesse puppy and baby boy!
I facetimed my sister right away and told her. Then I did the same with my mother. That method of telling them fits with our family personality. For my husband's mom, she likes fanfare so we had a reveal cake made and surprised them this weekend.
Looks like I'm having a boy! DH and I made a video for Facebook with the theme of gender madness(any march madness fans?). We had brackets made for boy or girl and DH had wine and beer ready to drink - beer for the boy. It's so crazy I was totally thinking it was a girl, but am very happy.
He almost didn't cooperate for us! He performed so well for all the anatomy pics, but when it came time for gender determination, he snuggled down into the fetal position. Augh! Radiologist had me stand and walk around for a minute to get him to adjust. And there he was! So excited to meet my precious boy!
