I'm having twins and not finding out the sex. Anyone else?
Rachel (27) married to Mark (30) and surprised to be expecting mo/di TWINS due January 7th but scheduled c-section at 37 weeks December 17th.
Put on hospital bed rest at 21 weeks due to elavated blood pressure.
I'm not team green with twins but was team green with my first 2. I think we might find out this time, just to experience what that is like. But I think it is the absolute coolest thing to not find out. It's such a great surprise. And 2 surprises? That's even better!
Both times I asked the doc to let DH tell me the sex (I had 2 c-sections so couldn't see) and it was the most wonderful and memorable thing from both births. How exciting for you!

We are Team Green and I'm definitely hesitant to do so, but I'll get over it. I really would love to find out, but about 4 years ago when DH and I ever mentioned kids, he told me how important it would be to not find out. So I'm just going with it. I'm sure I will be overwhelmingly ecstatic on the day our little bean is born.

Not pregnant with twins but am on Team Green for this baby - as I was for my first.
I will say that during delivery, not knowing if we were having a boy or a girl added to the suspense and excitement of delivery. Also - in my opinion, not having a definate name already assigned to the baby was a joy after delivery to announce we were the proud parents of a baby boy named.....
After the initial - how can you not find out - it seemed all our family and friends were excited about not knowing as well.... led to a really great betting pool!!!!

Samsies!...only not with twins. This is our first so we're really excited! I'm just afraid I might see a little too much at the ultrasound and find out accidentally. Anyone have any suggestions about that?

I feel ya girl. I was worried myself about seeing the "bits and pieces". But we told our doctor before he started the ultra sound that we didnt want to know and he just stayed away from that area. And to be completly honest with ya, even if he didnt stay away I dont know if I would have known what I was looking at/for. He did show us the baby's butt crack LOL but honestly I didnt even think about looking for anything more in that area. I was just too mesmorized with watching the babe move on the screen. The doc measured up the baby and told us everything was growing good, gave us a disk with pics/videos, and sent us on our way.
Not with twins, but I'm team green. We did it with our third baby and it was amazing. I wish I could go back and undo knowing with my first two! There is a mom on the December board (I think it's Mye) who is team green with twins.

Ask them not to tell you or show you that part. I had multiple ultrasounds in my last pregnancy, and each time, I just let them know I didn't know and didn't want to know.

Team Green too! Initially DH wanted to find out and I didn't, not long before the scan it was the otherway around. We eventually both agreed to wait until he/she is here although I did try to cheat at the 20 week scan. Result? I thought I saw girl bits, my mother thought she saw boy bits so waiting it is!

We are team green again too...just with one baby not two! Congrats to you for waiting!
I loved one of the PP that had c/s...I had one and will have to again and I love the idea of DH telling me the gender! Think I'm going to have to
We're not finding out.
Bad thing is, I have a STRONG intuition on what the gender is and it sucks. I wanted to have no clue whatsoever.
I would love one of each, I really want both, so if I were you I'd be hoping for one of each!
