I liked the idea of surprise. DH got to tell me DD was a girl when she was out. I thought she was a boy the whole way through pregnency and I was wrong. So it was a good surprise, I did secretly want a girl more.<BR><BR>I think if I hadv'e foind out what DD was earlier I'd be anoyed with myself that I didn't wait. <BR>It was my reward at the end. <BR><BR>But&nbsp; with DS it was nice that I knew what he was as he was named well beofre the birth so we were really used to using his name. <BR><BR>So neither way was better for me it was just right for me.<BR><BR></P>]]>

I found out with first and although I thought it would be a nice idea to not find out with our second, I don't think I'll be able to help myself.

Neither of us wanted to find out with #1. This time around it was more tempting but we decided not to at the last minute. <br /><br />I wanted neutral clothing etc to start so that we could use them with all our children. DD got heaps of girly things after she was born anyway. <br /><br />I don't call baby it. It's baby, or bub bub as DD says. ]]>

Later on that day/night i kinda wanted to ring her and ask what 'it' is, but by the next day i was so happy to be keeping it a surprise. <br />MIL is swore to secrecy and i'm really happy someone is buying colour coordinated clothes. <br /><br />I would say go with what you've always wanted and try not to let the curiosity take over as a day or two later you'll probably be really happy you waited.]]>

I also felt more prepared with it being my first and im too impatient to wait. I also thought that if it was a boy, id be happy but itd be a lil gutting as well so wanted to get that silly feeling out of the way before meeting the baby...as everyones said, its stil a suprise just you get the answer at 20weeks instead of 40...well probably find out with #2 aswell]]>

My sister was absolutely convinced I was having a girl.  Turned out she was right.<br /><br />With the second two we found out.  DH wanted boys both times.  I was fine with either.  I'm glad we found out as it gave him time to come round to the idea of a girl.  His face really dropped when we found out we were having a girl,Hailey but now shes his princess.]]>

Up until the labour started I wanted to know the sex. I even begged hubby all the time to let me ring them and ask, but he stuck to his guns. But when they pulled her out and told me it was a girl, i couldn't have been happier. I'm so glad I waited. It made it easier and more exciting and it made me more determined to go a bit further when I was pushing. So for us it worked to not know. Next time I'll probably have an elective - and I want to wait again. :)]]>

I really like the idea of waiting until the end and I always remember my mum saying "you don't get many suprises in life". Luckily my DH feels the same. And it was exciting to be able to announce to everyone once he was here that we had a son.]]>

In my case, both times I was a bit worried I'd be disappointed if I didn't get the gender I kind of wanted, and I'd rather get that out of my system ahead of time if need be (surprisingly enough, I didn't get the gender I'd kind of been hoping for both times, and got used to it very quickly the first time and wasn't even at all disappointed the second time, turns out I was over the moon it was a girl <img border="0" src="https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/smileys/smiley5.gif" border="0">) <br /><br />Now we have one of each (provided that they were right about this one!!), I would probably wait till the birth if we have a third. But if I could go back, I'd still find out for the first and second. With the third, in my case, it feels a bit different already having one of each and also having the clothes etc for both a boy or a girl (again, provided they're right).]]>

Like JoJames, it helped us to bond earlier with out little dots, and we named both ours months in advance of the birth.  I think birth in itself is a beautiful surprise.  Also on a practical level, it definitely helped me be prepared clothes wise, I didn't want everything to be neutral coloured.]]>

DP wanted a surprise and I wanted to know so we compromised with if they can tell us the gender then we'll find out... If not we'll wait BUT in saying that next time I want a surprise. It was nice knowing and nice to sit and think 'My daughter' etc but a surprise would be nice and have fun guessing etc!]]>

It was so much more exciting for us when DS born and for everyone else when we told them.<br />I didn't mind not knowing whether I had a boy or girl in there...it was all part of the fun.<br /><br />In terms of it being 'amazing', it wasn't really, but that's because DS had issues with his breathing and was whisked away before I really got a chance to see him.<br /><br />I always had a 'feeling' he was a boy...when I thought about having a baby girl it just didn't seem right.<br />]]>

She remembered asking with the second 'what flavour' even though she already knew it was a girl!]]>

Most people I know (of my generation) have found out, especially with first babies, so I'm interested in the experiences of mums out there who went the surprise route first time round.  Was the "it's a &#091;x&#093;" moment amazing?  Will you do the same thing next time?<br /><br />]]>
