when you were pregnant, or if you are pregnant, or if you become pregnant...
did/will/would you find out the sex of the baby? explain your reasoning please... I was just wondering...
I did, but have several friends that didn't...

We wanted to find out with both. With Reagan we found out at 18 weeks. Rhyann was stubborn and didnt want us to know. So we didnt know for sure until she was born.

i hate not knowing anything....so of course i wanted to know...i just wanted to be able to i guess feel better prepared.....and i prolly will know on the next one too...

With ds he was SUPER stubborn and we couldnt tell. With dd she was showing the world for all to see :D We found out with her at 20wks.

With our next we will do a surprise :yes

Yes, we wanted to know. I don't like surprises, and I prefer to be prepared instead of having to buy all gender neutral stuff because you don't know if you are having a boy or girl.

I hated not knowing.She was stubborn at first and then 2 mins later she flipped over and spread her legs! :giggle

When I do get pregnant..I will find out the sex of the baby...just so that I can be better prepared :)

i found out with both dd and ds. I will find out the sex of this one the day after Christmas. I want to be able to shop as soon as possible.

yes, i'm way to damn impatient lol

with our first we didn't
with the other two we did.

yes

lauryin was my first so I really wanted to know and well I had to make sure I wasnt haveing a boyconsidering I got pgnant 3 onths after I had lauryin and well I did so I needed boy clothes it would have been a little wrong to bring ryan home and make him wear pink!

For Tandis, we didn't want to know. It was so much more fun that way. I'm glad I didn't miss out on that, it was a great experience. Our next one we will find out asap though. :)

hell yes.. I'm way too OCD, I NEED to be prepared.

I don't want to know. I figured if we were supposed to know beforehand our stomach would be see through. As long as the baby is healthy and deveopling properly that's all that I would want to know. :)

Yes, I tried with all 4. I was just too impatient to wait and find out.

But I only could find out for 2 :giggle

Well seeing as we're short on money (trying to save for when dh gets out of the Navy) i wanted to know so people could by me the right thing..and i could have the right color baby shower :girl best idea!!!

Did with Miss K and will again next time. I'm too impatient to wait.

I wanted to know but DH didn't, so we didn't find out. I'm hoping when we have another one that we can find out so I can shop and plan a nursery.

I didn't just because life has so few surprises left in it... and how can you top that!

I found out all 3 times. I always said if I had a boy and a girl and was pg again then I wouldn't want to know. It didn't work out that way. I had my boy and girl but couldn't wait to know. Up until the point I was getting the u/s I had said I wanted the last pg to be a surprise. But when she asked if I wanted to know the sex I buckeled. I wanted to know with the first 2 cause, well, the first we had nothing and with the second we wanted to get boy stuff since we had all girl stuff if he was a boy.

We wanted to know with both pregnancies. Personally, I wanted to know because it made naming/shopping for/identifying with my baby a little easier. DD had a name for the last 4 months or so of my pregnancy with her. It was her - it was who she was. Paige. Not Paige or maybe Connor. Not green or yellow or neutral. Paige. Pink.

As it is with DS. He has a name. It's who he is. When I shop for him, I know I'm looking for footballs and dinosaurs and tonka trucks - not dolls and kittens and pompoms. There's no question, kwim? He's blue and red and brown and green. DD was pink and purple and - well - pink and purple :lol

I did get some yellow and green onesies before we found out he was a he...but I was so happy to be able to identify him, and call him by his name. He may be unborn, but he is our son :)

I hope all that made some sort of sense.

Yes, I'm WAY too impatient.. then at 30 weeks I had a 3d U/S to confirm :giggle

yes we found out.

we did with ds and he was more than happy to show us his goods :lol Also it wasn't that I was too impatient although I couldn't do the wait, BUT I wanted to name him and talk to him with a name and to me it was a closer bond knowing. :)

:yes ITA!! How come you can always say it better than I can :P

I found out with both kids. I'm debating on this one. I kinda want it to be a surprise since its our last one and since I have all the baby stuff I need.
But DH is admament on finding out so we'll see LOL

I feel this way too...I will find out on our second, but if it works out that I happen to have a boy and girl, if we ever had a third I think I would leave it for surprise...we'll see!

No, I wouldn't find out.

With the first one, we wanted to know...the next one. i don't know. Face it, I might want the surprise. I'll handle that bridge when I get there.

yup i found out all 3 pregnancies. I was too impatient to wait. I do think it'd be fun to hold out tho

Yes...DEFINITELY!!!!!

I just really enjoyed buying gender specific items and making Ethan's room gender specific. I wasn't too fond of all the yellows and whites. That's ALL my mom bought when we first told her we were pregnant with Ethan. Once we told her Ethan was a boy, then ALL the NICE stuff came in through the mail....LOL!!!!!!

I would just be too anxious throughout my pregnancy if I had no idea what gender my baby was. Finding out what the gender is/was made things more real for me, even though I was in complete denial until the very end...LOL!

maybe for my first i'd like to be surprised, but after that i'd like to know whether or not i need to go by different clothes and stuff.

We both want to know, just so we can be prepared with boy stuff or girl stuff that kind of thing.
