  • Haha, I would die if I didn't find out the sex. LOL. I don't know how some Mothers do it. :)

    Ohh, and Welcome!
    I'm due April 18th with my second son.
  • Hi this is my third pregnancy I had to know the sex of the baby for my last two I wanted to be ready especially with my first I wanted to be ready for the little one but I did pack a outfit for a boy I was having a girl but scared they might have made a mistake and didn't want a lil boy dressed in pink lol. My second was a boy. I would like to keep the sex of this baby a surprise but my husband said he can't so if everything goes ok we will find the sex out. If you can do it then that's great that would be so exciting
  • @lovemyboys i feel as if i am going to die but i also think it will b a great surprise to find out in the delivery room. Sigh. Im so confused. N congrats to u:)
  • Thx debs! I was actually supposed to b a boy:-/ lol i have millions of baby pics in blue clothing. I hope u and ur husband find out soon, do u want a girl?
  • We decided to have our first be a surprise & I LOVED it! There are tons of neutral baby things, from carseats to clothes & everything in between. It also holds up for future use, too! I'm 13 weeks with my 2nd now (due Aug 1st!) And we're finding out this time so we can tell our daughter what to expect, and it's just as exciting for me as the first! =) good luck!
  • Yes i've seen tons of neutral things i would want to buy my baby evn if i knew the sex! Its jus my mom in law is so excited n so is my mom. Everyone is dying to kno the sex but i cant decide. They say finding out the sex creates a stronger bond wit the baby but i totally disagree. Sex doesnt change my feelings abt my baby
  • It doesn't matter to me I just want a healthy baby. Even though we found out the sex if our first we got a lot of neutral clothes all the way till she was one we knew we wanted to have another and just in case it was a boy we didn't want to have to buy all new stuff.
  • Smart thinking! Good luck to ur family!
