finding out gender?

[Lesley27]

Okay last pregnancy we didnt find out what we were having... im not sure what to do this round... what is everyone elses thoughts :)

See i dont regret not finding out what i was having... if i had found out i still would keep it a secrete cause thats the best part to hear what they had in the end... but because im a bad at lying im not sure if i can keep it secrete so thats why im not sure if ill find out or not...

i didnt buy gender neutral clothes... i had hand me downs to cover me for the begining but ended up not needing any of them after my baby shower... i still have enough clothes to the end of next summer (she will be 2) and i never bought any baby toys cause newborns dont play yet? and most of mine are gender neutral... but not that i ment to its just how they were made (all colorful)

The only part that i had to do neutral was the baby room... but i love it... plus we only have 2 bedrooms upstairs so its gonna be shared with the next baby so no worries there... one wall is orange, the others are beigh and have animals all around... the crib bedding has poka dots brown, orange, green, and some other colors... ill put pics up sometime :)

I keep asking Clint if he wants to find out but he never answers me, i keep saying that if we were to find out he cant tell his family till we have him/her and im not sure he will hold out? lol

When we did find out we had a girl it wasnt quite what i had imagined as i had a c section adn was frozen it was late at night and they took her ot the NICU so i didnt get to really meet her till the next day... but i dont think knowing what she was would have made it feel really? cause it was  a weird feeling... you always imagine holding them right away...

I never wanted to find out...it's the last surprise left.  DH demanded on knowing with our first and I wasn't going to with our second.  I held out for a whole 26 weeks then asked at my Dr.s appt.  I just couldn't wait.  I haven;t decided with this one yet.  We have 2 girls, I would need new clothes anyway, because the seasons are 6 months different with this one.  Either way I have enough to get through the first weeks and a BIL who has plenty of boys clothes if I should need them.  Our car seat and stroller are already gender neutral as is all of our crib bedding.  I'm not a pink person, I love earth tones so we don't have a whole lot of pink and purple.  I think it will give me something to push for during labor if I am waiting to find out what it is.  I will probably give in and find out though.

I'm finding out. I found out with my son. So many people were saying "oh, your taking away the surprise of it all". I would just come back saying that it was still a surprise and the main surprise is what he will look like!
I agree with the neutral stuff....I hate neutral colours and didn't wanna deal with it. Not a fan of yellow and DH doesn't like green. haha

Unless you have money to just buy nuetral stuff or wait till last minute I would find out. Especially if the sex is different then the kid u have now. No offense what so ever, but it irritates me when people don't find out. Where's the fun in that?? You can't so any real shopping. That's my face part. All the clothes and toys that are gender specific. Nuetral colors look terrible on girls
