So I had a doctor's appointment yesterday and everything looked good. Also our harmony results had come in Monday and we found out all the screening went well, but I told the nurse I didn't want to know the gender quite yet and could she please email it to me and I'd look at it with my husband when we were ready.
We aren't team green, we were planning on finding out, but I wanted to wait until 16 weeks - pgal brain was just telling me to wait and it'd be bad luck to get let this pregnancy feel real too fast. And so we planned to actually have a gender reveal party the first weekend in November (it was going to be the kick off of my commitment not to be worried or depressed anymore).
But...yeah...the nurse we saw yesterday (who I LOVE) didn't get that memo. The first thing she said was - SO I HEAR YOU'RE HAVING A GIRL.
I'm so shocked. DH's family is full of boys, no girls AT ALL. So I was really surprised and am still actually really happy.
I don't know what to do about the gender reveal party though. Right now we're still planning on doing it, but since we know...is it lame?
Anyway. We're having a GIRL.

@kklamb10 I hear you! I haven't been a huge fan of gender reveal parties either, but we were only going to invite immediate family (grandparents and brothers and sisters) and we wanted to do it in the first place b/c telling people we were pregnant this time just isn't fun. Two separate family members at different times both said "I hope it turns out better this time". I mean, so do I, but that's not fun to hear. But I agree, our parents and probably my sisters are going to be most excited. DH's brother is super sweet but he won't get into the gender reveal stuff the same way for sure.
BTW, I had posted yesterday about being apprehensive about asking for a 16 week appointment, but yeah it was no big deal, she didn't even blink when I asked. Even if it had been, the nurse was so mortified I think she would have agreed to anything, lol.
