Wish I knew how to do a clicky poll, but I'm not that talented:) The board has been a bit slow lately and this is something I've been thinking alot about lately and wondered what you ladies thought.
When you get your BFP do you anticipate finding out the sex? And when it comes time to deliver, do you want an epidural or would you want to try going drug-free (in ideal circumstances), or even a home birth?

Re: Cart waaayyyy before horse: Non-clicky poll
I plan on finding out the sex, but DH doesn't want to. We'll cross that bridge when we get there.
I was in the room when my sister delivered nephew #1 med free with forceps (her epidural ran out and the nurse didn't refill it because she th

PAIF/SAIF Welcome!
I always thought I knew the answers to these questions, without question, but it's amazing how this journey has made me question what I initially thought I wanted.
Before IF I would have wanted to find out the sex, and was 99.99% sure

One thing we were talking about today were the 3D ultrasounds. We were saying we don't want to do this because it takes away
We will find out the sex so we can finish the nursery. Will have epidural, at home births or water births are just not for me.

I'm pretty sure that we will not be finding out the sex. DH has made it clear that he would prefer to keep it a surprise. And I'm okay with that, too.
I'd prefer to go drug-free, but we'll see what happens.

*Taking a break*
I go back and forth about whether to be team green or not. I don't think DH could handle it though. Or handle his mother not knowing, for that matter.
I would like to go natural, but I'm not so sure I would last...
Yes, we want to find out the gender. Or at least, we did the last time we talked about it. I haven't changed my mind. I want to be able to get the nursery and everything set up.
Definitely want the drugs. I am a huge wuss and have no intention of
We will find out the gender - I hate surprises
My birth plan is a shot of whiskey and an epidural for each kid. I'm hoping for triplets.
I don't want to find out the sex, but I'm not sure DH will agree, so we shall see when the time comes.
I am petrified of spinal needles, and plan on going drug free. I am not interested in a home birth though.

Holland Sophia was born Jan 24, 2014.

We will definitely be finding out the gender. Since we are likely going to be one and done at this point, I want to buy everything gender specific, set up the nursery completely, etc. I'm too much of a planner and hate surprises anyway.
As for th

Currently taking Metformin 1500 MG and Synthroid.
Prior HSG and DH SAs were clear.
Feb 2013 - Switched clinics/RE and starting from the beginning again with some modifications.
Current status: CD 3 appointment showed lining was too thick (11.5 mm). Endometrial biopsy scheduled for CD 11. Next steps will be based on results.
All welcome to respond.
