Surprise gender

I am 31 weeks and not finding out the gender until I have the baby. Are there any other mommas doing this? It is driving me crazy and I can't wait to find out. I have made it this far and am too stubborn to give in. I'm trying to think of a onsie to make for baby to reveal the gender when we have visitors. Any suggestions on what the shirt can say? I also want a door hanger that says something like he or she come in and see. Should I do a wreath or wooden sign. Help me out ladies.

Congratulations! I can't imagine the roller coaster of emotions that come with getting pregnant,losing a child and finding strength and courage to try again. I have decided to make a wooden chalk board sign. It will say He or She come in and see! I will have smaller signs hanging down with babies weight length and time of birth. I'm making a onsie ahead of time that says "Surprise I'm a". I will have stuff to add boy or girl after baby is born. The baby is going to wear the shirt. It will be hidden under the blankets that baby is swaddled in. Visitors will have to unwrap the baby to find out the gender.

We are also waiting! We lost a baby last year and feel so blessed to have this miracle (we're 28 weeks). We just want a healthy baby, boy or girl! I hadn't thought about anything special for a gender reveal,but now you got me thinking... :-)

I'm sure your two boys will keep you busy and time will fly by.  I have a 1 1/2 yr old daughter and 5 yr old stepson. If it's a girl I'm okay. If it's a boy, he will need clothes. My husband wants another boy. He says he can't handle two girls. Our daughter hit terrible two's months ago. I think she can sense baby and its her cry for attention. Either that or she's a handful.

I'm waiting this time. It's my 3rd and last baby.  I'm really hoping to get a girl, I have 2 boys. Part of me really wants to know, but a bigger part of me wants the surprise. I have a lot longer to wait than you, I'm only 14 weeks.  I didn't really think of gender reveals other than announcing it to family and friends and social media.  My sister is going to get to know before the baby comes so he or she doesn't have to come home in a gender neutral outfit.  She won't get to know until the very end though.  Maybe my announcement will be a picture with bsby dressed in a boy or girl outfit.
