Waiting til birth to learn the gender.

So hubby and I are TTC baby number 3. We found out the sex with the first 2 and I'm thinking it would be fun to be surprised with number 3. Is there anyone that waited until they had the baby to learn the gender. Was it hard to do? I'm not a very patient person and I'm not sure I could wait the whole 9 months to find out.

I am going to wait. Now I just have to get pregnant. And when I finally do I will just tell my doc not to tell me the gender no matter how much I beg.  lol

never found out the gender on my mine, im currently pregnant with no 3. the surprise at the end is worth the wait, such a buzz of excitment when u finally find out if it is a boy or girl (not that its not excitin anyway).  i personnally didnt find it to hard not to know the sex but i understand how it can be hard not to want to know, esp when everytime u go for a scan the sonographer asks if u want to know the sex lol. it will be worth the wait if u can do it :)

With our 2nd baby we didn't find out till she was here. It's a great fun but very hard not to know as well, we did find out with our 1st and it's totaly different exceprince. i would say go for it.


ps: even though we didn't out, but i had some strong feelings i was carrying a baby girl :)
