Are you gonna find out the gender of your baby? - Page 2

[KayleeZoo]

Yep. We knew without a doubt with both of the girls (We had 10+ Level 2 ultrasounds with each one, so there was no way that we didn't know :LOL) and I'm sure we'll find out this time, too. THough I am hoping for a non-high risk pg this time around, so maybe we'll have the normal 2nd tri us that will tell us

He's not a Dr., though - but he thinks its a girl, which matches my intuition. So, we think we may already know... but we are still debating whether or not to have out TCM Dr. tell us what his prediction is... He is like 99% accurate! We really enjoyed the suprise last time, but we might be leaning more towards finding out this time.
and Desa, we were marveling over CJoe for a little while too, before we even thought to check the sex! LOL!

My TCM doctor is going to check with my pulse. So far (11 weeks), she thinks it's a boy, but that she says the time that it is most accurate is from weeks 12-16, so she'll check up on it then and let me know for sure what she thinks it is. She also has a great reputation for being accurate, so it's very exciting!

I voted yes. With our first (dd), we didn't want to know. We were convinced it was a boy until right before we went in for the c-section (long story) when dh said all of a sudden he knew it was a girl and she would be okay.
Ironically, one of the reasons I didn't want to know was that I didn't want to be drowned in tons of pink flowers or blue cars by well-meaning friends and relatives. I'm horrible at keeping that kind of news to myself. Well, DD was 6 weeks early, made a brief appearance at her own baby shower and everyone knew we'd had a girl.
This time I want to know what of DD's stuff to keep, and, well, I just really want to know this time. Almost like I really didn't want to know last time. We'll just have to wait and see.

We didn't find out with dd but I kinda want to know this time around. Don't know for sure what we'll decide, especially considering we're doing a home birth and it won't be as easy to get hooked up!

Usually I am a control freak and want to know everything! But it was so wonderful to have my dh announce our baby's gender to the room and have that one little bit of knowledge before anyone else could. Hmmm... maybe I'm talking myself into NOT knowing!

This is one where I don't have much of a choice. WHile I think it would great to wait until delivery and hear "It's a ....."
DH and my mom are insisting on knowing. Just one of those fights that aren't worth it to me

Yes if possible we will. If it is a girl, we are set and pretty much don't have to buy a thing (other than diapers since Grace wore out the smaller size diapers we bought last time) because it will be the same seasons and all for clothes and everything. If it's a boy, we'll have to buy pretty much all new clothes except for a few GN sleepers we got from DH's family last time because they ddin't know what we were having.

I don't want to find out this time but dh does. It will be a battle of wills and I'm usually the one to break first so we'll probably end up finding out.

We didn't find out with Logan and the joy of hearing my best friend scream down the hall of the hospital "IT'S A GIRL" and apparently do a dance, made me glad it was a surprise. I think the element of surprise is like a bonus, you wait all this time for this wonderful gift and the surprise is like the 10% you get in a king size candy bar, it just makes it that much sweeter!

I have a feeling its a boy, but it may just be that because we already have a girl I just automatically assume the next will be a boy, but I also keep refering to the baby as "he" and I've dreamt that we had a boy. But I won't be dissapointed either way, just as long as this one stays out of the NICU! :

I'm not going to find out. I always thought that it was one of lifes true surprises. However, with my 1st I always thought it was a girl and I was right and the lady at the Thai resturant said girl...for sure. So I will just ask her again to see if she can go 2 for 2. This time I feel like its a boy who I have named Ralph since my MS has been so bad.
