There was no way I could have waited till birth.  I was dying to know at 7 weeks! I feel more prepared for baby knowing the sex. I hate surprises. It's fun to prepare for the baby once you know the gender. I get to call my baby by her name and she kicks.  I love it. I like to be organized,  so knowing the gender was important.  My anxiety would be through the roof if I didn't know what I was having.  I think if you can wait till birth, than that's cool. It just wasn't for me to do.

I would never have the patience to wait. Just waiting until my 20 week scan to find drove me crazy.! Lol. Personally I think it's better to find out that way you can buy all the clothes and pick out the right bedding and everything. They do have gender neutral stuff of course but it's just so much harder to find and they don't have a lot of it.

When i had my first my mother said to me that if i find out its fine but if i didnt find out everyone would be so ready to know .. and it was be what did she have ? Not so much oh yeh she had her girl. I waited and to be honest as hard as it was i was shocked when my baby popped out and i was assjming it was a boy but then they were like its a girl and even tho i didnt find out i loved that moment. And all the pink or blue comes quite quickly . My daughters room is pink and purple and she has tons of stuff that says girl. Now that i m having a second i m wanting to find out more hust as id like to get rid of the smaller girl clothes or sort through them a bit more but i dont think ill find out !!

I didnt find out but everyone keeps saying that because of the shape of my stomach that its a girl, so they kind of gave it away :(
