Any one thinking of not finding out??

Has any one decided not to find out the baby's sex.  This is my first, I am 20wks plus, and seriously thinking of opting out of finding out the sex.  Anyone else?

we're not finding out, though hubby has now changed his mind. But i've put my foot down, saying if ANYONE  tells me the sex of my baby before i look im going to nutz. He even asked for a good reason why we shouldnt find out because we  found out with DS, so i answered, i'm the one who went through a 54 hr labour with DS, my body, i want baby to be placed in my arms and when i wanna look at his or her bits i'll do that and find out myself, well with DH aswell lol. OZBRON is right there are so few suprises these days and i want this one to be the ultimate.
Its ur decision, luck, hugs and kisses xx

We've decided not to find out. It is killing our family who want to buy things, but I have never gone in for the whole pink for girls, blue for boys thing so am quite happy to get lemon, lime / green and red items.
There are so few 'mysteries' left and since I am having to have a c-section, i don't have the whole unknown of the actual birth event, so I like having this mystery.
I know others who have found out, named the baby before it is born and there is absolutely no 'news' to give when it is born.
So we are happy with our decision not to know.
