Tips on not finding out gender of baby?

Question

With this being my third pregnancy and already having a boy and a girl, we really want to be surprised. 
For those who have done it:
Do you remind them at every appointment? I’d hate to be that annoying person but this might be our last baby.

Answer

We remind them if it’s an ultrasound. We didn’t find out with our first and don’t plan on finding out with our third. My doctor always remembered, but it was a good reminder the ultrasound techs as it wasn’t always the same one.

Answer

Me to. This is my third and we want it to be a surprise. I also have both already!

Answer

U remind them and when u have your 20 week scan I ll be told to close your eyes when they go for the potty shot. That said I havent delivered my baby yet ( 4th baby n I knew every other time) .I had an amazing tech who I'm told is so good that she has found things even dr s didmt find so I dont want to believe that she let me see a potty shot but I had my eyes closed on my own at one point n I opened to see no boy parts. Later she said " Ok now close your eyes " She took some pictures n sealed them in an envelope. Also I had genetic testing done n told the counselor during my results tjat I wanted ot to be a surprise..My advice dpnt chat too ling bc I feel like she let the cat out of the bag when I kept talking .I thi k I was more trying to convince myself that I did t want to know.I have that envelope sealed too so I can see if the results match after delivery day ..Best wishes

Answer

We haven’t found out with either of our first two and also ended up with boy, girl.  Not finding out again.  I told my OB in the beginning and it was never on my charts.  At each scan I always reminded the tech at the beginning of the appt!  Typically friends who have gotten surprises ruined it happened from an ultrasound tech! It’s such a great surprise!

Answer

We chose to surprised with all of our pregnancies so far. We would let them know early on and you can ask what the hospitals policy is. Where we were, the gender never showed up in the doctors notes or on our chart. None of my doctors knew what the sex was based off my chart. 
Of course when they do the anatomy ultrasound (remind them you don’t want to know) the tech will document and check the reproductive organs but it’s almost as if it’s a checkbox for them. BUT AGAIN DEPENDENT ON HOSPITAL POLICY. Just find out first and tell them. We never had a problem.

Answer

I'm in the same boat as you when I do get pregnant with # 3 we really want to keep it a surprise we also said if I happen to get pregnant with multiples we're not going to tell anyone about the second baby
