I want a puppy!

Actually, either would be fine with me, but I'd love to have a little boy. On the other hand, a little girl would be pretty cool too.

Gah, who can decide!

I'm thinking if it ends up being only one, then boy. If there are two there, then most likely boy and girl. I've always felt that the first one I have will be a boy and the second will be a girl.

I think I would have a difficult time coming to terms if I ended up with two of the same sex or just one girl, because it doesn't at all go with what I've been feeling and I'm typically pretty spot on with my intuition.

When it comes down to it, though, health is of much greater importance than sex. That's ferdernsher.

Amen! I will be having multiple visits with perinatal specialists and extra ultrasounds because I came down with chicken pox at 4 weeks.

With all those ultrasounds I don't know if I can make myself wait to find out this time. With my daughter I found out when she was born. While pregnant with my daughter I loved the not-knowing. My husband and I had so much fun referring to the baby as him and her on alternating days! My best friend, on the other hand, threatened to bribe the OB who did my level 3 ultrasound (threatened miscarriage several times in that pregnancy, venous lake under the placenta--goodness but I seem to have pregnancies fraught with tension).

For some reason I'm really anxious to know this time around. So, the answer is, I don't know if we'll find out.

Before getting pg I was sure that I would have a girl first. Hubby is absolutely
convinced that the first baby must be a boy, though, because any girls we
might have [B]must[B] have an older brother. Jeesh!

I've been so confused by his certainty that I just don't have any strong feelings
one way or another. We aren't going to find out til birth, though I believe I'll
start to get an inkling as we progress. Waiting for the dreams!

oh, and I just wanted to add that it's equally likely that I'll have either/or if just one or any combination of sexes if two, due to when my partner and I BD'd.

I honestly don't care what I'm having as long as it is healthy. I really wanted a boy with my last pregnancy that I lost, but this time around I don't care. This will be my last pregnancy so I will enjoy it no matter what I'm having.
I do want to find out what I'm having just as soon as I can though. The suspense always kills me!

We will not do an ultrasound (unless medically indicated). I love the mystery of it. Yesterday and the day before I thought it was a girl and today I think a boy. Chinese lunar calendar says a boy. DH wants a kangaroo!!
