awww congrats to you all! :) My 20 week scan isn't going to be until the end of Nov or beg of Dec. I'm 20 weeks on the 8th or something like that in December (I'd have to look lol) ....Seems crazy some people are already to that point. I do have a scan next week but I"ll be a few days shy of 16 weeks so dont know that I woudl trust what they told me....??! LOL....My scan is for other reasons though ;)

Tiffany, you should keep a tally in the first post! That'll be fun to see how we balance out as more people find out. The March group is at 50/50 as of the morning!

Yes, please do!  When I was pregnant with my daughter our DDC leaned a little heavier towards boys and I was one of the ones waiting and totally had a girl.  Then the opposite happened with my son -- anatomy scans showed a lot of girls and then I had a boy.  This is actually bizarre because there were obviously people who waited to find out and then had boys and girls respectively (I actually think the May 2010 DDC ended up disproportionately girl-dominated even at the end, although the Nov 07 group ended up basically at 50-50).  But it was still fun for me and I must admit I'm already assuming this MUST mean I'm having a boy.  My husband the economist rolls his eyes when I make such assumptions and tells me "statistics don't actually work like that." LOL.

We're having a boy! It'll be my husband's first boy and my 3rd. My poor stepdaughter will have 5 brothers! My 3 and her mom remarried and had 2 boys!

We're so excited. It was fun to discuss names with the kids at dinner tonight.

yes! and I was thinking too, it seems like this DDC is girl-heavy with already existing children, at least according to who has the info in their sigs.  I'm not sure I've seen anyone with only boys like me.  Hopefully the girl vibes keep up!

[TIFF4NY]

I will happily create a tally when I'm back home on my computer! That's a great idea.

My scan got pushed by a week... DH can't take even an extra hour off Thanksgiving week . I had a full blown temper tantrum, even though it wasn't his fault, ughhh hormones! I -knew- I was being ridiculous, but couldn't help it.

I was going to ask if everyone was having girls so far, that already had their scans, and then I saw your post.

I would, too. They told us at work that they have blocked the *entire* month of November, and *no one* can request any time off.  It bothers me. I wasn't going to request much, if any, but the idea that they can restrict it that severely... seems wrong.

I updated my original post to show who's having what. Please let me know if I missed you and please let me know if you'd like to be added to the 'waiting to be surprised' list.

To those with multiples I will add you under your category with the appropriate colors should you choose to find out the sex.

It will be so cool to see how the tally develops as the handful of us with u/s appts. in the next few weeks post!

Thanks, Tiffany!

You can add me to the "waiting to be surprised" list.

I am dying to know the sexes of these three!!! Our anatomy scan isn't until nov 23... I'm debating on trying to get an apt with a 3d/4d u/s place ... But wondering how much they are going to charge for three babies. We are having our baby shower this Saturday because ill b on partial bed rest in dec.. Plus dec is just a bad month .. And jan ill b on full bed rest and these little ones will b here in febuary by 34 weeks... I would really love to know the sexes by the shower so I can reveal it I'm 18 w so I think they should b able to tell !!!!

Tiff where in nor cal are you I'm in the Bay Area ... Where did u get your scan done?

They should definitely be able to tell and if you wait much longer it might be too cramped to see! I live in Stockton and went to a place called Tate Diagnostics. The gender test was $50 and there didn't seem to be restrictions on the number of babies they are looking at. They are located both in Stockton and Manteca so if you didn't mind an hour and a half drive you could go there. =) I'm so excited to find out what you're having too!

Have an apt Friday at 4 pm they r only 25 min away and 90.00 for seeing all three babies! The cool part is my mom will b in town so she will get to see the u/s !!!

I think we might all be *almost* as anxious to know what you're having as  you are lol!! How fun!! Do you have any guesses or intuition?

[Cananny]

I know:) I have always thought two boys and girl ... The way they lay always two together and one by self ill b surprised if its three of one gender ... I'm really hoping for a mix ... My partner says two b and girl but she's always wanted twin girls so hopes its two g and boy
I wish it were Friday

[mayday]

Ooh! It's going to be an exciting week on the board! Cananny and Martha, my ultrasound is on Thursday afternoon and I'm on pins and needles! I can only imagine you two are doing the same happy-it's-almost-here dance I am.

[Ethelpea]

Found out today, I'm having a girl :)

That will make 4 girls and 2 boys for me :)
