Gender Reveal question - not the normal one

So, I asked for tips on how to get a cake SUPER VIBRANT on facebook and people started telling me I should have a baker do it and find out with everyone else. 

two problems with that, besides me just not wantingto do it that way
1. my in-laws live five hours away and wouldn't come in for a gender reveal (and MIL isn't big on the internet so no skype allowed)
2. I want to share that moment with JUST my DH. This is one of few things that we really want to keep as ours for a week.

 

So here's the question: should I now be feeling guilty for wanting to know before everyone else? I mean, they are OUR babies after all.

    As PPs said, don't feel guilty. DH and I found out the sex, but we are not telling anyone until LO gets here. We wanted it to be just between us for now.

    I don't know if you got the answer you needed on FB, but for sure use gel food colors to get a good result with your icing. You can buy gel coloring at Michaels or Joanne's.

    And for Pete's sake, don't feel guilty.

    I'm not into gender reveal events, so I definitely don't think it's wrong for this to be something you DH share.

    Hell, we didnt even tell our respective parents I was in labor until after DS was born.

    You're right, they're your babies...you don't need to feel guilty finding anything out about them first or keeping any information about them to yourself.

    On the cake note, I'm an amateur baker and cake decorator, but my instructor usually recomm

    Dont feel guilty at all! We debated on telling anyone at all but having only dh and I know. We decided against it but never once did a feeling of guilt come across. Your babies, your decision.
