We didn't want to find out, then i did, then i didn't! What we did was ask the sonographer to write it down and we sealed it in an envelope. Both of us are really glad we didn't find out and we have no desire to open the envelope (for almost 2 weeks now its been burning a hole in a draw). Because they aren't 100% I wouldn't base what i purchased on it so we figured why bother. Now we are going to wait until after the birth then open the envelope to find out if they were right - a bit of fun really (and if we do change our mind it's there on a little piece of paper). I think by doing it this way we haven't rushed to any decisions to find out or not as it's there anytime we want it, no pressure. Really needs to be your decision though. I didn't want to find out and then regret it - i can't take that back. You need to be comfortable with your decision. Good luck.
