Got my scan in 9 days and am really undecided whether to find out bubbas sex or not...i've always stayed team yellow wiv my other babies but I really dunno wot to do this time. I wanna find out cos I really think it's a girl and havin 3 Boys already I don't want to get my hopes up just for it to b a boy,il love it the same either way but got such a strong pink feeling that I can't help but get excited. My dh doesn't wanna find out but has basically said that it's upto me. Aaaaaagh,im kinda hopin baby has it's legs crossed so I can't find out lol,even thought about findin out but not tellin ppl xxx
 
I would say go for and find out, that way if it a girl you can start getting some pink things in :lol:
 
i think you should find out, as youve always done the team yellow thing, maybe this time break the tradition?? i think im defo going to find out :) x
 
I found out last time and this time because I am sooooooooo impatient!!!! Lol x I say find out this time!
 
I'm team yellow through and through :D I don't ever want to find out.. Such an exciting moment, obviously giving birth, but then the little added surprise :) xx
 
I'm sooo glad that I found out, I can now eye up lots of little dresses :D And all the reletives know what colour things to buy, hehe!

yeah not to menion xmas pressies for baby can be the right colour!! x
 
Thanks ev1,I'm still undecided but don't wanna b like a kid at Xmas...peakin b4 the day then not havin anythin 2 look forward to lol. But then I don't wanna b the kid that's wants a bike but gets a dollshouse iykwim...grrr,I know that if I find out and it's a girl il wish I'd have waited but if it's a boy il b glad I found out...god I can't win xx
 
I found out just cause im impatient! But it made it more real for me... Like its not just a bump but a little girl with a real identity...

Guess its different being my first but i'd say go for it, find out, you'll have a beautiful baby to look forward to whether you know the sex or not, so do it!!!
 
Well I hadn't intended to find out , but baby couldn't keep his legs shut on the scan it seemed!

I'm not disapointed as he is a he , as I felt he was, and as I would have prefered if I had the choice, but I know exactly what you mean Emma.

When pregnant with my daughter , they told me she was a girl on the scan, (with a girl you can miss something can't you) so I didnn't believe them and convinced myself over the next 20 weeks that she was a he just incase, I wanted a girl as I had two boys already and would hate myself if I had any glimmer of disapointment if it turned out she was actually a boy on the day of birth. So it worked , she was a girl, and I was over the moon, but the slight downside to my plan, was that I was too geared up for my little boy called Devon, that I didn't feel finished. So I am over the moon now to be finally having my missing boy Devon, and hope that I then feel totally finished with having babies as OH has said this is my last! So finding out can have its bonus's after all

Wishing you luck with your descision Hun X

I think you should find out Emma :) I am going to and I opened all my xmas presents before xmas as a kid!! I cant wait for anything!!! :)
 
I was like you hun. I have 2 boys already and kinda had a feeling that this might be a girl as i felt different to my other 2. I thought i would LOVE to not find out the sex and get told when i give birth that i have a little girl but then i thought well if it's a little boy i'd be glad to find out as it would prepare me mentally. To be honest, i'm glad i found out as as much i love this little boy inside me soooo much i did have a day of being a bit gutted when i found out (feel so guilty for saying that) as this is my last. I would have rather that than be a bit dissapointed i didn't find out when he was born as i didn't think it was fair on him. BUT I'm over it now and just looking forward to my 3rd boy! Some things are just meant to be.

Totally your choice and good luck making it hun xx
 
I sooooooooooo don't wanna know!! Really hoping it's not gonna be obvious!
 
Hmm that is hard. I know if I had 3 boys I would wanna find out if I was finally going to have a girl or another boy. However I would find it really hard to keep it quite and not buy colour coded things! I am lucky that Hubby and I have both decided that we don't want to know and keep it a suprise.
 
omg find out find out 3 boys!!! how can you not!! i think u will defo need preparin mntally if it is boy number 4!!!! gud luk hope baby is what u wish x
 
Were staying team yellow too but also hope its not blatently obvious when I have my second scan so Im praying I wont be able to see!

However the curious side of me obviously is wondering if we have a son or daughter in here!!

I'm exactly where you are ... scan is tomorrow don't know whether to ask or not. I did ask last time but was disappointed by a very vague maybe!!

I had just started a thread along these lines in 2nd Tri when I found your post!

Let me know what u decide
x
 
I've just replied to ur post lol...I'm still undecided. My dh has said that if I find out then he doesn't want to know and all colour related clothes/items r banned from the house....but part of the reason I want to know is so I can prepare my youngest son as he doesn't adjust to change v well and there's no way a 3 year old will keep it a secret lol xx
 
Lol Emmab, my hubby has just changed his mind and now wants to know!!! Grrr, I had decided to stay yellow but now the temptation to ask is creeping in.

Scan at 3.15 today and still undecided lol
