anyone have a traveling husband or boyfriend

My boyfriend is a train engineer and he is gone for about 48 hours at a time...He may miss our baby's ultrasound tomorrow so I'm a little sad about it, so if he misses it what are some fun ways to reveal to gender to him? I was thinking about spraying blue or pink  silly spring him when he returns from his next trip lol

Our ultrasound tech wrote it down and put it in a sealed envelope so my husband and I could find out together. My hubby is a truckie. Our ultrasound place also does DVDs for $10 to take home to watch with the family.

My husband at the time and I couldn't decide when having my daughter if we wanted to know or not..we asked the ultrasound tech to write it down for us and so we could decide later..and she said no she wasn't allowed. This was 8 years ago..but just forewarning thst they may say no :(

My husband is in the Army he left for Afghanistan the day after I found out I was pregnant with our twins.  We lucky he made it home when I was 35 weeks pregnant. I am glad he will be home most of this pregnancy :)

My husband is an engineer and leaves for a week or so at a time sometimes without much notice. Our plan is that if he isn't able to be there we will have them put the gender in an envelope and we will open it together :) hard I know but I want to find out together.

My husband is a truck driver. He left at 5:30 for a week and our ultrasound is today. I thought of getting a mounds for a girl or almond joy for a boy.
