Before I was pregnant I always said I didn't want to find out, when my sister was pregnant and she said "boy" it was so much more exciting buying things.
So when I was pregnant super excited to find out what it was and told everyone it was a girl. Now with this one on the way - same - its way more fun buying things.
But I agree with most - keeping the names to ourselves.
ROFL well I'm quite flattered ;):
Is Bathsheba your real name or a BB name? There aren't too many around. My surname is Berry, I selected my fake names because they sounded quite silly with that.:
Bathsheba is my online name but it might as well be my real one as so many people call me by that name IRL now :D How funny.... I have a virtual pet called Sheba Berry on another site! She is a very cute squirrel type creature LOL
well i know i always have to find out but we might keep it secret dunno yet im not pg yet but we have picked a name for a future girl but some ppl already know it
We're still up in the air with deciding if we should find out, but I recon we will end up doing it. 3weeks to decide! If we do find out we will definately tell everyone as we are having a baby shower a bit later on, and I really dont want a bunch of lemon or mint coloured things!!!
For what its worth we wanted to know with DS but we had a number of scans that said he was a boy and then a girl and so on.
I finally worked out a reply that made people laugh and move on: "Well we're fairly certain its human and probably ours, but a puppy would be great also"
This time around we found out and wanted to tell as it is clearly a girl but now everyone is all "well we will wait till its born just in case" - which is kinda upsetting too in its own way.
Mumintraining thanks for making me smile! :)
For us, it's not big deal whether other people want to know or not. DH & I always find out, if people want to know we'll tell them. If they don't want to know, we won't tell them. It's our baby, not theirs, so it's not really a big thing for them whether it's a girl or boy whereas it is for dh & I.
Well that's my opinion anyway.
