We have always decided between 10 and 20 weeks and usually have a firm decision by the 20 week scan.
With baby no.1 I had always wanted a boy first and was stuck on Jack for a name but OH hated it so we seemed to stick with J for some reason and went through Joshua, Jaden, Joe and he eventually became Joel. Good job he wasn't a girl as we hadn't even thought about girls names we were so convinced he was a boy! Our second child I was convinced was a girl and we had settled on Nina for a girl and Dylan for a boy, boy he was so Dylan he became.
With our third we decided to find out boy/girl at the 20 week scan and as she was a she went through girls names. I no longer liked Nina and hubbys fave name Beth was out as we have a family tradition in my family going back 8 generations of the eldest girl having Elizabeth as a middle name. I found the name Kari in a book and loved it although we mispronounce it as carry instead of car-e she suits it and Kari Elizabeth is the ninth generation to carry on the family tradition
With this LO hubby is determined to have his way and call baby Alex if it is a boy (he is a huge Man U fan
) and we like Jade and Skye for a girl so are currently discussing (read arguing) over Skye Jade (him) or Jade Skye (me) but I will win eventually
