Finding out the gender??

Any moms not finding out the gender of their baby? I'm thinking that's the route we are going to take. Also keeping the names secret to reveal once baby is born as well! We just want healthy and happy! And surprises are all to fun!

Re: Finding out the gender??

  • We aren't!  I had to be sold on the idea at first.  My husband didn't want to find out and I thought I couldn't stand it, but now it sounds like fun, plus I like a lot of the neutral colors anyways :)

  • DH and I both hate surprises so we'll be finding out through an elective at sixteen weeks and confirming at our anatomy scan :)

  • I'm pretty sure we're not finding out. I didn't want to find out with our first but ended up giving in. This time I hope I hold out. I think it's exciting and I know it's really going to piss my family off which is a big bonus :)
  • We aren't finding out.  I didn't find out with my first one either.  
  • We are team green all the way! We found out with #1 so we feel like we have alot of the stuff we need. Plus it's entertaining to see the grandparents fret over our decision. Especially my MIL!! Hehe!!

  • Yes! Boyfriends mother is totally against us not finding out the sex, or holding names secret, or anything actually !! It's gonna be a long 7 more months. BUT it's our baby and not hers so as long as it's what we want then it's the right choice for us! But she certainly doesn't hold opinions back! Phew!!
  • Team green. We won't tell name ideas either. Last time we had about a half dozens options of girl and boy names and narrowed it down to two at the hospital during labor.

  • We didnt find out with number 1... I wanted to until hubby sold me on not finding out. He had someone tell him 'there are very few good surprises in life' and we liked that so much and wouldn't have changed it with our little girl. Funny though, after 2.5 hours of active labor with no edpidural (not by choice!) I didn't hear the doctor say it was a girl when she was born. I was screaming through it! Lol. We will not find out with this one either, even though I'm doing the maternit21 test which will tell u. I love green anyway :)
