Hello everyone!
Well in a couple of weeks we have our 19 week scan where we might be able to find out the sex of our bubba! But, here's the problem - I don't think i want to know, but DH definately does want to know
With DS I we did find out he was a he, and after I knew i felt much closer and bonded stronger with him. I was felt like he had an identity rather than an "it" and we could name him etc. Prior to that i felt like a pregnant woman... after that i felt like i was carrying a baby - if that makes any sense?!
This time is different, i already feel that bond with my child i am carrying, and I don't feel like I need to know what gender it is. I don't think i'll be disapointed either way, although I would like a girl, a boy has lots of advantages!! And I like the idea of Evan having a little brother!
DH wants to find out and he reckons he won't let it slip. But that's not the point, i want it to be a surprise for BOTH of us. And plus, i doubt he could really keep that secret from his best friend who would want to know, and he would def slip!
The other thing is we have agreed we only want 2 children, so this is my last chance to do things differently iykwim.
What do you think? Anyone else had similar issues?? It is a weird situation for us, because usually i'm the impatient one and DH is more relaxed and takes things as they come. Why can't he wait another 20 weeks????
