I knew with mysecond but I didn't tell anyone.
I didn't tell anyone much that I knew except for my belly buddies and my sister and a couple of friends. I think it's easier to keep a secret if people don't know that you have one.
the first time around we found out but the second, hubby wanted to find out but i wanted a surprise.
DH is pants at keeping a secret - i knew he would spill the beans so we didn't find out this time.... in the end DH was happy to have a surprise, it's the 2nd trimester where it still feels like aggges away where he wanted to know.
I knew both times but DH didn't want to know. With DD1 he didn't even know that I knew (I slipped the receptionist at the ultrasound clinic a note explaining the situation, and rang later for the results). With DD2 he knew I would find out again so when we went for the 20 week scan he was "kicked out" after we saw all the good bits of the scan, and the sonographer then told me.
Both times I was able to keep the secret without any trouble. I don't have any regrets finding out with my girls, but this time around I'm tossing up whether or not I should have a surprise.
I knew for all three and DH didn't. I didn't tell anybody at all.
Suited us just fine.
I didn't slip up once, in fact he was confused all three times Each baby came out different to what he thought. I have a GF, her husband knew and she didn't, that worked out well as well.
