For a few reasons....firstly because this is my last chance to have a girl and I need to know early so that I have time to "grieve" (yes, strong word but when you've wished and hoped as much as I have, it will be disappointing to have another boy) and then I can put it aside and get on with the rest of my pregnancy and loving and preparing for a new little boy to join my world.
Same here also. This isn't likely to be my last pg but I do want a girl. I wanted a girl with my second & was disappointed to find it was a boy. It lasted alll of 5 minutes but still. I didn't want to make any negative comments at the birth when it was a boy & not the gilr I hoped for.
We will find out again this time but I am sure its another boy!
