Ultrasound!
I have my first u/s for this one on Tuesday.
I've found out what it was each and every other time, and this time around, part of me wants to know but part of me doesn't want to know what it is. I already have had 2 of each, so either way doesn't really matter to me. I have tons of girl clothes still from DDs and a fair bit of stuff that could go either way... Plus I was given some boy clothes just in case, so I am pretty much set for clothing for the first little bit, and rushing around for clothes isn't an issue. This one is the last one for sure. There's no question about it. This one was a huge surprise, and at my first app't in July, one of the first things I said when my OB said, "So, you're back again?" was asking her if she can tie me up after this one's born lol So... what should I do? Find out or keep it a surprise?? For some reason, I've been tossing this around for the last week or two - surprise or no surprise - and I can't make up my mind!! |

Congrats on your ultrasound ) I really wanted a surprise this time round, but DH really wanted to know. We'd like another one after this, so as this one's a boy, and we've already got a girl, if we're lucky enough to have #3 then we've agreed on a surprise... I'd just really like to hear 'congratulaions, it's a......!" I seem to remember that last time you weren't sure about finding out, and that the sonographer wrote it down for you, so I'm guessing there's probably a bit of you that does want a surprise.... What does your DH say? As for this being your last one, isn't that what you said last time round lol x Lucy x |

What does your DH say? Congrats on a boy!! Boys can be tons of fun And... that was me - I had the technician write down what DD2 was on a piece of paper and seal it in an envelope. That didn't really last too long LOL Not even 24 hours and I was so itching to open it up (and hoping she wrote down something like, "I'm sorry, baby was hiding and I couldn't tell for sure" lol) DH says nothing. He'd be fine either way, finding out or not. I doubt he'll even be at the u/s anyways, seeing as he hasn't been at one to date... He was fine knowing or not and told me that in the end it was my choice lol (so, basically, he's no help - he'd agree either way) As for this being your last one, isn't that what you said last time round lol x Yes, I did say that last time, and I thought DD2 was the last for sure! He didn't want me to go for surgery and said he would go... He never did (and eventually said something along the lines of, 'I don't want some doctor seeing and feeling my balls' He was not at all keen on the idea of me going for surgery as we all know I don't take surgery very well at all and he also had a cousin die after a big messup on her C-section. I believe something like a towel or something was left inside her, which ended up getting all infected and caused a big issue and she died fairly quickly after her section - IIRC, her baby was born a week or so before Christmas and she died just after Christmas. So I think he was just paranoid. But I had talked to my OB, and he knew, that if I had to go for another C-section, I would get tied up right then and there since it could all be done in one shot. That didn't happen and DD2 was not a section baby. I seriously think my body will completely fall apart with any more. Even this time around I feel like I'm having a pretty rough go Lucy x |

I say make it a surprise. You've already had 4 pregnancies and found out
the gender before the birth -- why not do something completely different this time? It'll make the pregnancy experience unique and different from all your others, and add a little bit of a different feel to the birth -- the addition of that little bit extra excitment from finding out the gender when the baby is born -- hearing "It's a _________" for the first time as the baby enters the world. That's what I'd do! -- Jamie Clark www.ClarkDigitalArts.com "Kat" wrote in message ... I have my first u/s for this one on Tuesday.

If I was to have another I would let it be a surprise -- Pip, in NZ My girls : DD1 Jasmine - 5 weeks early - March 02 - 4lb 12oz 6 now and such a treasure. DD2 Abby - 8 weeks early - Feb 05 - 3lb 14oz 3 1/2 now and so grown up "Yes you can drive me insane just by talking to me!" |

I'm really NOT good with the unknown and surprises and all - I just always seem to have to know everything if possible - I bet it's not even fun to tell me stories about something that happened because I *know* I stop to get all the details, even if they're not really vital LOL It's less than 24 hours away - just about 20 hours from now. I'll already bet it's a girl - this I'd put money down on I plan to go in and tell them right off the bat that I don't want to know and want it to be a surprise... and here's to hoping I can control myself and NOT yell, "Ok! Tell me! Tell me!" at the last second LOL |
