I KNOW THE GENDER....but I don't know the gender ...ahhhh!! UPDATTEEEE!!!

edited May 2015 in October 2015 Moms
DH and I decided we didn't want to know the gender just yet but we also decided that when we did want to know it would be on a beautiful day when everything was perfect so....so what we came up with was to have a card with us where the u/s tech would write it down for us and when we were ready we would read what the card said. ..... Today I went for a apt because I was spotting and it worried me and it was nothing BUT the u/s tech says "do you want to know what your having , because I can tell you now!" I almost cried and handed her the card and explained, she was thrilled lol so now I have in my possession the card that says the gender of my baby .....omg its killing me aaahhhhh!!!! Will I be strong enough to resist the temptation of peeking. I know that if I look I won't be able to keep the secret! :-SS

UPDATE: so I figured instead of doing a new post I'd update this one ...... We decided to open to envelope... It was a beautiful night dh had spend all day talking baby he had been superrrrrr sweet got me everything I craved that day I mean everything and at night he says ...what do think you want to open it??!?! I said open what he says the envelope...I said I thought wed all open it together ?!? He says mhh let's make it an us thing ...he was very exited.....


WE ARE HAVING A BOY !!!!!! daddy picked his name and he will have dh's name he will be a third ...dh is a Jr and his father is Sr. ! What a proud daddy moment !

  • You have more strength than I do, my friend. I have 2 boys already and this will be my last child. I am SO hoping for s little girl this time! The not knowing is driving me nuts!!!!
  • Loading the player...
  • ooo my im trying so much he card is in a small yellow envelope and its taunting me lol!! this whole preg for me has been about being strong and doing things out of my norm... i gave up lotions and shampoos and conditoners anything chemical. i gave up salt and any kind of artificial sweetners. i am working on keeping calm cool and collected ...so now heres one more thing and out of EVERYTHING this seems to be the hardest!!!!





  • My doc wrote it on a paper, sealed it in an envelope and I managed to get it to a friend before peeking! Then I deleted the health care app from my phone in case there's info there. We are revealing on Sunday so hopefully I can wait!
  • @beanie1977 how far along are you? I feel like with me its kinda early I'm 13+4 so idk I'm thinking that by 20 w mb they might have smtn different ! And I still think I'm going to do most things gender neutral because u never know a few pinks or blues here n there but nttn that can't be easily fixed!





  • lol oh man that is tough!!!!!!!! I wouldn't be able to control myself.
  • I would just look.  But that's me :)

    I had the blood panel done this time around at 12 weeks due to my age (34-gasp!!!)  ;)  They pretty much check your DNA for chromosomes and abnormalilies and that is why we found out so soon.  With my son we found out by ultrasound at 18 weeks!

  • I made it past my first day! Yay I hope i can wait till about week 18 so 5 more weeks !!! Ahhhh.... I will wait till about that time to start with my purchases too ... I ended up putting the envelope far up on my book case we neither dh or in are tempted to peek !

    @ljburrelli and @beanie1977 you guys got to know for sure !!!! 37 and 34 u guys are at your prime ! :-bd





  • SO EXCITING!!! Stay strong and wait!

    I have my next appointment on the 29th and I'm going to see if the doctor can tell what it is! If he can, I want him to write it down and I'm going to try not to peek! We will take it to the bakery and have cupcakes made with either pink or blue filling and find out with our family if it's pink or blue!!!! So excited!!!!!
  • You have more strength than I do, my friend. I have 2 boys already and this will be my last child. I am SO hoping for s little girl this time! The not knowing is driving me nuts!!!!

    Omg me too
  • I had an ultrasound today without my guy there he was stuck at work, blah.. anyway our dating scan is the 1st week of may but the tech today looked and I couldn't help but peek and ask. Now I feel so guilty knowing and I almost blurted it out when I got home. Ive promised myself to not spill so he gets to see our baby for the first time and we find out "together" yikes.. I feel bad. Lets hope I don't ruin his surprise.
  • Just wanted to update wasn't sure how , mhh





  • I'm just not patient enough to wait that long! I'm pretty sure I'd grab the envelope as soon as we left the doctor. So I admire the restraint that some of you have!

  • You are so patient!! We thought they would look at gender when we had our quad screen at 13w4d but they didn't. We went to an ultrasound place at 16w and found out we are having boy #4!!! Doctor confirmed it yesterday and it's still a boy! Although we were really wanting/hoping for a girl, we are so excited for a healthy baby!!
  • CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!! :D I don't know how you handled waiting this long .
  • It was SOOOOOOOOO HARRRDDDDDD!!!!!!! I didn't think I could , and I'll admit I had the envelope on my hands a fetwt times dying to look but I figured nahhh let met just wait ...it will be a beautiful moment when dh and I open it ....and yes it was !!! Totally beautiful!
