18 week scan, boy or girl? Who's knows, and who is finding out?

I have a friend who was told in 3 ultrasounds thru her pgcy that she was expecting a girl. Labour came and out popped a boy! Boy was her family shocked and they all had to run out and buy boys clothes Hehehe!
Yes, being told a boy generally means they can see the unmistakable willy and boy bits, being told it's a girl, generally means they "can't see" any obvious boy bits so they assume it's a girl. Mind you, they were right with both of mine!

We wont be finding out. We didnt with DS1 and DS2 and after much thought about whether to or not this time around we have decided not to. I know I will be dying to ask at the scan but I will try and be strong. I will just have to get excited over everyone elses news over the next couple of weeks!!

I heard of that before too. My friend from high school, her parents were told there were having another girl right through there pregnancy, but out pops a boy. They were thrilled, but busy painting over the pink room, and exchanging all the pink clothes and accessories that had bought. he he he

Jemima, I loved the excitment of not knowing with our DD, everyone whould try and guess right up until he/she pops out, even the doc was having a punt.
DH wanted to find out with her, but I didn't so it's only far that this time round we find out, plus I'm exciting about knowing now too. But either way I find exciting.
