Should i find out the gender?

I agree with the others - if you'd set your heart on a girl or a boy then it could be important.

For me, not knowing was great. Mind you, both DP and I thought we were having a boy - to such an extent that we'd only chosen boy's names.

I kept telling people, "we think it's a boy so if it is then clever us for being right and if it's a girl, clever her for fooling us."

And of course, it was only the people with the most bizarre theories that told me I was having a girl so I kind of ignored them.

Yes, we had a girl! My first reaction was, "what???????" But we could not have been happier and I spent the first two weeks in wonder at how my cheeky little monkey had fooled us so convincingly.

Good on you for making that decision - I found out by mistake or fate which ever way you want to look at it at 32weeks - we chose not to tell anyone outside of the immediate family - I have to say I was devastated at the time as I really didn't want to know but we had a 4D scan and they put it on a video, we took it to the IL's (as we only had a DVD player) and low and behold the image was clear as day - so ironically we all found out at the same time - especially given that we had asked them not to go in that area and specifically not to tell us the sex - I got over it pretty quickly though - I had a gorgeous baby boy (which was my gut feeling the whole way) to look forward too - this time around I think we'll find out, but keep it too ourselves
