HELP! changed my mind about gender/sex reveal party.

so my sister and I are both pregnant and both due within a week from each other and they thought it would be a neat idea to have a gender/sex reveal just family and close friends, so I agreed but now that they're taking so long to plan what is supposed to be a small get together I'm having such a hard time waiting to find out I'm having and I'm ready to go get an ultrasound just to find out the sex of the baby, would be super rude if I did that?

Re: HELP! changed my mind about gender/sex reveal party.

  • I wouldn't think so. Just don't tell anyone until the party. Your body, your baby :)

  • You may do whatever you want. If you want to find out then go ahead. Are you still wanting to do a reveal if you chose to find out?
  • I agree with PP, go for it, if you're still wanting the reveal party, just don't tell anyone.

  • I agree with PP, if you wanna do it, do it.

  • You can do whatever you please. However, at this point, your anatomy scan is probably pretty close, so you may want to wait instead of paying OOP for an elective u/s right now.

    Do whatever you want keep it between you and the hubby if you dont want anyone to know you know. It's a very personal thing anyway. I waited but had the same feelings as you. This past weekend we found out it was a girl at the reveal party. It's hard to wait!
    Edited twice sorry I have slippery fingers today.
  • I think that's something you should discuss with your sister to take her feelings into account. She may or may not find it rude - maybe it'll spur her into planning something or get both of you to plan something.
  • It's your baby! If you and H want to know then go ahead. I had a similar situation where my sis wanted to throw a small gender reveal party for us. Since this is our first child we really wanted to have that private moment when we find out together, so we agreed that we would reveal to family at the party but we would already know. The party planning was going absolutely nowhere and by the time we got the ultrasound nothing was planned. We were so excited and couldn't imagine waiting the length of time that she needed to plan the party. We politely declined the party and just explained that we are very excited and ready to share with everyone. She didn't take it personal. So you and H could find out and reveal to family at the party, or you could just decline. But I definitely believe that you should do what makes you happy! :)
  • I would just find out but still join in on the party to reveal it to your family

  • If you decide to go ahead and find out before the party, just please, please, please still act surprised.
