On the fence about finding out gender?!?

Question

Hello ladies!
I have my 20 week scan tomorrow and have the opportunity to find out the gender!
I’m on the fence, with my first we waited until birth- it was the best🥰
My husband thought since we waited the last time that it would be nice to find out this time, but he ultimately left it up to me. I want to know but I LOVED finding out at birth- best surprise ever!
What’s your opinions?

Answer

I couldn't not find out 🤦🏾‍♀️😂
Both times we've had early scans to find out the gender, both times a girl, both times HIGH EXCITEMENT! 😁
For me it just makes it feel so much more real to know who's joining the family, plus I'm an organisation freak so couldn't be dealing with gender neutral everything 🤦🏾‍♀️
I like to have everything ready including nursery, clothes, name etc 
I don't think it makes the birth any less special at all, as some have suggested. 
Each to their own though, just do what makes you happy ☺️✨💗

Answer

I’m in the same boat! My husband and I agreed we were going to wait and be surprised (and told all our friends and family were not finding out). But after trying to agree on two different names and nursery colors etc, he’s now saying he wants to find out at my anatomy scan. and ultimately left it up to me since he’s not allowed at the appt...but I’m so torn! 😭

Answer

Waiting to find out with our second, like we did with our first. It’ll likely be our last and I know my husband would love to know to either prep for a boy and get rid of our daughter’s outgrown clothes, or to wash and organize her smaller stuff. But he left it up to me, so its a surprise

Answer

We didn’t find out with our first which ended up being a boy. We did find out with our 2nd which was a girl. We are pregnant with baby #3 and we chose not to find out again. After having done it both ways, I loved not finding out! The only difference I really felt after finding out at 20wks that we were having a girl was that we could solidify names a little more since we only had to pick one gender. And I could buy some cute girl things. But honestly, had she been a boy, it wouldn’t have been too exciting at all to find out the gender since we already had a boy. I just think the moment in the delivery room is so special to find out. Gives you something to look forward to! Plus, telling friends and family is my favorite also! So many people find out gender now days as well as share the name and so there’s really not a whole lot that is special about the birth other than the baby is finally here. I’d say go with your fit tho on what you feel is right for you!

I have my scan tomorrow and just posted something similar! Love hearing you did it and enjoyed the surprise!

Answer

At this point go with your gut feeling. There is no right or wrong way of finding out. Its more of a personal choice 😊
