I like knowing the gender as soon as I can, personally. I think it could still be fun to do a little gender reveal for others later if you’d like to find out now.
Gender reveal question
Hi ladies,
My husband and I have differing opinions on when to find out the gender. I’m 10 weeks, 4 days and we just got back results of genetic screening. Baby looks good and they put the gender in an envelope. My husband wants to know right away. I wanted to wait until gender reveal around 18-20 weeks. However, I’ve had a lot of stress with work and losing my first cat. I think knowing gender will help me bond with the baby. Is it odd for us to know and do a gender reveal for our friends later on? This is our miracle baby after 3 failed IUIs and a failed IVF. I’ve always wanted a fun gender reveal party! I love throwing parties and thought this would be a good excuse! Thoughts?

I have supported every one of my family and friends with gender reveals, but it’s not for us. The idea of sharing that moment with someone else besides my husband is not for me. We have enjoyed surprising our immediate family with the news of our pregnancy, but of course we had time to process it ourselves first. Since this baby is so special (not saying others aren’t), I would find out just the two of you. Then share the moment with friends and family surprising them. This way the two of you can enjoy this special moment without the influence of anyone else.
Sounds like it could be a nice little secret for you two to keep for a little while. If you want the fun element of reveal for yourself, I’m sure you can find a bakery that can make just a littler personal cupcake or cake for you two to have a fun little private reveal before a big party down the road. You can also record that and keep it as a private memory.
