Gender reveal or wait until birth?

Question

Husband and I decided before I became pregnant this time we’d wait until birth to find out out the gender. Now I’m seeing a lot of gender reveals and now became undecided. Husband wouldn’t mind if I wanted to find out but being this is probably our last I can’t take anything back, I don’t want regrets one way or another. Please share your experiences with waiting until birth and what that surprise is like.

Answer

We didn’t find out with our first 2 and it was the best! The moment at birth when my husband said “it’s a girl” is just so special and memorable. That being said, we have 2 girls and I’m pregnant with our 3rd and last baby. My husband really wanted to know gender this time so I agreed to find out. We’re having a 3rd girl. 
It’s been bad for my wallet because I keep buying matching outfits for my 3 girls 🙈

Answer

I didn’t find out with my first and am planning not to find out this time either. It was such a lovely anticipation and so special when they held my daughter up when she was born so I could see

Answer

I found out with my first two and am waiting this time around! This is our third and final and we’ve got one of each so either way we’re prepared. Honestly, I thought it would be super hard but it’s been really fun. I’m only 16 weeks but it’s kept it exciting. Gender reveals are great, don’t get me wrong, but the thought of husband telling me the gender as they pull the baby out is just going to be so cool!

Answer

We’re on our fourth baby and we’ve never found out gender before birth. It’s such a fun surprise, and takes a lot of the stress out of the planning period! If you’re thinking about letting it be a surprise, I say go for it!

Answer

I have waited with all 5 of mine (despite multiple ultrasounds) and will again this time. Even as a major planner, I feel it's so worth it. There are so few real surprises in life, I enjoy experiencing this one. 🙃

Answer

We were surprised for both of our babies. It was awesome and the only way we would do it next time.

Answer

I waited with all three of my kiddos. It truly was the best experience to find out at birth. Very rarely do we get to be genuinely surprised like that in life.
